We,  the  People 


by  MARKS  LANE 


\Jn  a  cold  October  night  five  thou- 
sand people  gathered  at  Jamieson 
Stadium  to  participate  in  the  first 
Homecoming  game  in  the  ninety-one- 
year  history  of  this  school.  As  we 
stood  to  hear  the  national  anthem 
our  attention  was  focused  on  one 
idea:  We,  the  People  of  the  Universi- 
ty of  North  Carolina  at  Greensboro, 
are  wholly  responsible  for  restoring, 
establishing,  and  preserving  tradi- 
tion. In  doing  so  we  build  a  lasting 
pride  which  ensures  future  students 
and  administrations  of  a  heritage  rich 
in  American  collegiate  spirit. 

UNC-G  stands  at  the  brink  of  a 
new  era  in  the  beginning  of  its 
ninety-second  year.  Nineteen  hun- 
dred eighty-two  saw  the  birth  of  a 
greater  American  collegiate  spirit 
than  the  campus  had  seen  since  the 
days  of  World  War  II.  In  those  days 
the  campus  of  only  women  students 
remained  at  home  while  young  men 
defended  our  country  abroad.  The 
spirit  and  patriotism  were  a  result  of 
a  war.  Today  the  campus  boasts  an 
enrollment  nearing  eleven  thousand 
with  young  women  and  men  having 
an  increased  awareness  of  the  impor- 
tance of  national  security  and  peace 
with  other  world  powers.  Students 
have  a  greater  appreciation  of  the 
peace  and  freedom  our  leaders  are 
working  to  preserve. 

It  is  impossible  to  ignore  the 
heritage  handed  down  to  us  today  at 
UNC-G.  Women  students  gave  this 
institution  seventy-three  years  of 
heart,  spirit,  self-discipline,  and 
academic  achievement.  They 
established  traditions  long  since  past 
but  not  forgotten.  Their  contribu- 
tions are  immeasurable  as  well  as 
their  spirit  and  devotion. 

The  blazer  tradition  distinguished 
classes  of  women  for  years.  In  their 
sophomore  years  they  were  assigned 
blazers  of  the  color  designated  their 
class.  This  tradition  sprang  from  the 
idea  of  assigning  a  particular  color  to 


each  class  beginning  in  1893.  The 
first  designated  color  was  red.  This 
color  was  followed  by  green  for  the 
next  class,  blue  the  next,  and  then 
lavender.  The  colors  remain  today 
but  the  blazers  are  hanging  in  the 
closets  of  alumnae.  The  class  of  1983 
had  the  distinction  of  being 
designated  red. 

Gone  also  are  the  traditions  of  the 
May  Queen,  May  Day,  and  chapel.  As 
a  celebration  of  spring.  May  Day  was 
a  gala  event  including  the  winding  of 
the  maypole,  a  ball  held  in  the  even- 
ing, and,  in  earlier  years,  a 
Shakespearean  production.  Most  of 
the  festivities  were  held  in  the  am- 
phitheater on  the  golf  course  which 
has  since  disappeared.  The  event  was 
also  a  celebration  of  beauty 
highlighted  by  the  May  Queen  and 
her  court,  elected  by  the  student 
body.  Such  pageantry  had  been  left 
to  the  past  until  the  crowning  of  the 
first  homecoming  queen  in  the 
school's  history  last  fall. 

Chapel  was  the  time  when  the 
university  sat  down  together.  At  noon 
on  Tuesday  the  student  body 
assembled  in  Aycock  Auditorium  and 
sat  according  to  class.  Freshmen  sat 
at  the  back;  seniors  sat  nearest  the 
stage.  The  programs  weren't  always 
religious  but  always  included  con- 
gregational singing  —  one  way  in 
which  unity  and  school  spirit  were 
maintained.  Although  it  is  not  possi- 
ble to  assemble  the  student  body  of 
today  under  one  roof  on  campus,  it  is 
widely  hoped  that  a  large  majority  of 
students,  faculty,  and  administration 
will  unite  with  alumni  through  the 
coming  years  at  homecoming. 

The  ever-changing  identity  of  the 
school  has  brought  about  the  birth 
and  death  of  traditions  at  UNC-G. 
Not  all  changes  are  warmly  welcomed 
and  recognized  as  progressive  but 
over  time  are  best  for  the  school. 
First  there  was  the  change  from 
Woman's  College  to  a  coeducational 


university  in  1964.  UNC-G  moved 
another  step  closer  to  the  school  we 
attend  today  with  the  addition  of 
male  students. 

In  1979  the  campus  moved  forward 
with  the  start  of  the  Greek-letter 
social  system.  Most  students  ignored 
this  change  in  the  school's  character 
but  those  who  supported  it  and  par- 
ticipated in  its  growth  and  success 
received  their  reward.  Even  those 
who  chose  not  to  participate 
acknowledged  the  need  for  social 
structure  and  were  pleased  to  see  this 
system  growing. 

The  rise  of  the  athletic  program  at 
UNC-G  has  captured  national  atten- 
tion. Winning  national  champion- 
ships is  not  uncommon  for  the  soccer 
team  and  ladies'  basketball  is  con- 
sistently at  the  top  of  national 
rankings. 

From  May  Queen  to  homecoming 
queen,  from  handicapped  student  to 
Ail-American  athlete,  from  fraternity 
president  to  freshman  seeking  to 
become  actively  involved,  the  in- 
dividual makes  the  difference  at 
UNC-G.  There  is  greater  potential 
for  the  individual  to  become  a  leader 
here  than  in  many  universities.  When 
the  individual  recognizes  his  rights 
and  freedoms  and  begins  exercising 
them  responsibly  he  begins  to 
understand  and  appreciate  the 
American  collegiate  experience  more 
fully.  The  collegiate  experience  is 
what  the  individual  makes  it.  This 
book  is  dedicated  to  the  recording 
and  preservation  of  life  at  UNC-G  in 
1983  and  pays  tribute  to  the  in- 
dividuals who  made  the  most  of  their 
experiences. 

We,  the  People  of  the  University  of 
North  Carolina  at  Greensboro, 
observe  our  heritage  in  greater  ap- 
preciation of  the  past  and  work  to  en- 
sure future  classes,  faculty,  and  ad- 
ministration of  a  greater  tomorrow.

1>  ot  in  the  ninety-one-year 
history  of  this  school  has  there  been 
an  event  to  compare  with  the 
magnitude  and  celebration  UNC-G's 
first  Homecoming.  For  a  university 
sadly  lacking  in  traditions  around 
which  students  can  rally,  the  advent 
of  Homecoming  was  indeed  a 
blessing. 

It  was  the  unanimous  opinion  of 
the  five  thousand  Spartan  fans 
gathered  at  Jamieson  Stadium  that 
this  was  the  breath  needed  to 
resuscitate  the  fainting  spirit  of 
UNC-G.  Since  the  addition  of  men  to 
the  campus  in  1964  the  changes  they 
have  made  are  vital  to  the  rise  of  col- 
legiate spirit.  This  was  never  as  evi- 
dent as  on  the  night  of  October  28, 
1982.  Thanks  to  seventeen  young 
men  and  their  coaches,  UNC-G 
celebrated  its  first  Homecoming 
game  and  festivities. 

In  view  of  the  wildly  enthusiastic 
response  from  the  crowds  it  it  may 
seem  unbelievable  that  there  had 
been  stiff  opposition  to  the  proposed 
idea  of  electing  a  homecoming  queen. 
The  purpose  of  the  event  was  to 
foster  spirit  and  encourage  unity  of 
students,  faculty,  and  administration 
traditional  to  so  many  universities. 
Whereas  it  took  an  individual  to  try 
defeating  the  proposal,  another  in- 
dividual led  the  fight  to  create  and 
establish  the  badly  needed  tradition. 

Early  in  October  Student  Senate 
passed  a  resolution  condemning  the 
selection  of  a  homecoming  queen 
calling  the  event  discriminatory  and 
debasing.  The  resolution,  co- 
authored  by  the  Student  Govern- 
ment Vice  President  and  a  senator, 
stated  that  the  university  and  its  stu-

Breath,  and

of  Homecoming

dent  orgnizations  had  a  policy  of 
non-discrimination  based  on  dif- 
ferences such  as  sex  and  race.  The 
authors  felt  the  election  was 
therefore  demeaning  to  any  woman 
involved  because  it  placed  emphasis 
on  physical  characteristics.  Further- 
more, they  insisted  the  election 
would  be  detrimental  to  race  rela- 
tions at  UNC-G. 

The  voice  of  the  majority,  Randy 
McGuire,  defended  the  objectives  of 
the  contest.  As  Vice  President  of 
EUC  Council  and  coordinator  of  the 
contest,  he  made  it  clear  that  the 
desire  of  the  Council  was  to  ensure 
equal  representation  for  all  student 
organizations.  McQuire  maintained 
that  the  nomination  process  had 
covered  all  organizations  without 
regard  to  race  and  as  democratically 
as  possible. 

McGuire  nobly  continued  with  his 
plans  for  the  contest  despite  the 
resolutions  and  ramifications.  He  and 
the  Council  held  the  view  that  the 
students  were  desperately  searching 
for  something  around  which  to  rally. 
Undoubtedly,  a  homecoming  queen 
crowned  at  the  soccer  match  against 
Notre  Dame  would  appeal  to  the 
masses  and  ensure  a  renewed  interest 
in  the  rise  of  tradition  at  UNC-G. 

And  rally  they  did!  An  hour  before 
the  start  of  the  soccer  match  the 
crowds  flowed  into  the  stadium.  The 
turnout  and  show  of  support  was 
unequaled  by  any  event  in  the 
school's  History.  At  7  p.m.  six 
finalists  in  the  homecoming  queen 
contest  were  escorted  onto  the  field. 
Each  contestant  had  the  distinction 
of  being  a  member  of  the  first 
homecoming  court  at  UNC-G. 


At  7:05  the  crowd  roared  as  the 
crown  was  placed  on  the  head  of  one 
of  the  most  delightful  and 
distinguished  personalities  in  recent 
UNC-G  memories.  Elizabeth  "Skoal" 
Ford,  representing  Tau  Kappa  Ep- 
silon  fraternity,  captured  the 
limelight  as  the  first  homecoming 
queen  in  the  school's  ninety-one-year 
history.  Escorted  by  TKE  Joey 
Katzenstein,  she  represented  a 
triumph  for  the  EUC  Council  and  a 
milestone  in  the  development  and 
preservation  of  true  American  col- 
legiate tradition. 

At  7:30  all  attention  was  focused  on 
the  Spartans  as  they  took  control  of 
the  ball  and  continued  to  possess  it 
most  of  the  first  half.  They  fired  shot 
after  shot  to  succeed  only  with  a 
penalty  kick.  A  very  grueling  second 
half  brought  only  one  goal  for  the 
Irish  and  excitement  soared  as 
regulation  time  ended  with  a  tie. 
Even  a  double  overtime  did  not  affect 
the  Spartans'  performance.  The  Irish 
proved  their  luck  in  an  eventual  vic- 
tory: the  Spartans  proved  their 
strength. 

In  a  year  when  blessings  were 
counted  slowly  and  traditions  saw 
slow,  sometimes  unstable  beginnings, 
we  must  not  fail  to  acknowledge  the 
true  gift  which  was  given  our  school. 
Though  we  lost  the  game,  we  won  a 
tradition  to  be  shared  by  future 
students,  faculty,  and  ad.^inistra- 
tion.  We  can  be  proud  that  wt  par- 
ticipated in  the  birth,  breath,  and 
blessing  of  Homecoming.

From  Mclver  to 
Moran 


by  DOROTHY  F.  CLARK 


J.  he  University  of  North  CaroHna 
at  Greensboro  was  established  by 
legislative  enactment  on  February  18, 
1891,  and  opened  on  October  5,  1892 
with  a  student  body  of  22.3  and  a 
faculty  of  15.  The  City  of  Greensboro, 
situated  near  the  geographical  center 
of  the  state,  was  selected  for  the  loca- 
tion of  the  new  institution.  Its 
citizens  voted  bonds  to  the  sum  of 
$30,000  for  the  erection  of  the  first 
buildings,  and  the  original  ten-acre 
site  was  given  by  R.S.  Pullen  and 
R.T.  Gray. 

The  University  was  known  first  as 
the  State  Normal  and  Industrial  Col- 
lege (1892-1919),  later  as  the  North 
Carolina  College  for  Women  (1919- 
19311,  and  as  the  Woman's  College  of 
the  University  of  North  Carolina 
(1932-1963).  It  came  into  being  as  a 
direct  result  of  a  crusade  made  by 
Charles  Duncan  Mclver  in  behalf  of 
the  education  of  women. 

Other  pioneers  in  public  school 
education  —  notably,  Charles  B. 
Aycock,  Edwin  A.  Alderman,  and 
James  Y.  Joyner  —  came  to  Dr. 
Mclver's  assistance;  but  to  him,  more 
than  any  other  individual,  the 
University  owes  its  foundation. 

During  the  years  1932-1963,  the 
University  known  as  the  Woman's 
College  of  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  was  one  of  the  three  bran- 
ches of  the  consolidated  University  of 
North  Carolina.  In  1962,  the  Board  of 
Trustees  recommended  that  the 
Greensboro  campus  become  coeduca- 
tional in  the  fall  of  1964.  By  act  of  the 
General   Assembly  in   the  spring  of 


1963,  the  name  of  the  institution  was 
changed  to  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  at  Greensboro. 

The  crusader  for  founding  the  in- 
stitution, Charles  Duncan  Mclver, 
served  as  its  first  president.  In  1906, 
following  the  death  of  Dr.  Mclver, 
Dr.  Julius  I.  Foust  became  president 
and  served  until  1934  when  he  retired 
from  active  service.  In  1934,  Dr. 
Walter  Clinton  Jackson,  who  had 
served  as  teacher  and  vice  president, 
was  elected  head  of  the  institution 
with  the  title  of  Dean  of  Administra- 
tion. By  act  of  the  Board  of  Trustees 
in  1945,  the  title  of  the  head  of  the  in- 
stitution was  changed  to  Chancellor. 

Dr.  Jackson,  who  retired  in  19.50, 
was  succeeded  by  Dr.  Edward  Kidder 
Graham.  After  Dr.  Graham's  resigna- 
tion in  1956,  Dr.  W.  W.  Pierson,  Jr., 
served  as  Acting  Chancellor  until  Ju- 
ly 1,  1957,  when  Dr.  Gordon  W. 
Blackwell  became  Chancellor.  Dr. 
Pierson  returned  to  serve  again  as 
Acting  Chancellor  in  September, 
1960,  after  the  resignation  of  Dr. 
Blackwell.  Dr.  Otis  Singletary 
became  Chancellor  July  1,  1961.  Dur- 
ing the  period  of  November,  1964,  to 
February,  1966  while  Dr.  Singletary 
was  on  leave  of  absence.  Dr.  James  S. 
Ferguson  served  as  Acting  Chancellor 
until  his  resignation  on  November  1, 
1966.  Dr.  Ferguson  again  served  as 
Acting  Chancellor  and  was  appointed 
Chancellor  on  January  9,  1967.  Dr. 
Ferguson  served  until  his  retirement 
to  return  to  teaching  in  the  summer 
of  1979,  when  Dr.  William  E.  Moran 
became  Chancellor. 


The  University  of  North  Carolina 
at  Greensboro  entered  a  new  era 
when  it  became  a  coeducational 
university  in  the  fall  of  1964.  It 
assumed  a  greater  role  as  a  part  of  the 
public  education  system  of  the  State 
of  North  Carolina.  As  a  state  institu- 
tion it  desires  to  be  of  the  greatest 
possible  service  to  the  people  of 
North  Carolina,  and  its  advantages 
are  open  to  all  on  similar  terms 
without  regard  to  race,  color,  or  na- 
tional origin. 

During  its  first  seven  decades,  the 
institution's  mission  was  to  prepare 
women,  primarily  undergraduates, 
for  the  most  effective  living  of  that 
day.  Today  the  goal  —  effective  liv- 
ing —  remains  the  same  but  its  scope 
has  been  greatly  expanded. 

UNC-G  now  offers  men  and 
women  over  150  graduate  and 
undergraduate  programs.  It  provides 
opportunities  to  apply  classroom 
learning  to  real-life  situations 
through  internships  and  practicums. 
It  also  offers  students  the  chance  to 
tailor-make  their  own  programs  of 
study  based  on  individual  needs  and 
goals. 

Although  contemporary  in  its 
educational  program,  UNC-G  is  also 
realistic.  In  its  effort  to  prepare 
graduates  for  effective  living,  it  has 
built  into  its  program  the  flexibility 
needed  to  meet  the  rapidly  changing 
needs  of  society.  UNC-G,  therefore, 
will  remain  a  university  in  transition, 
not  satisfied  with  yesterday  or  today, 
but  always  looking  toward  tomorrow.

Greek  Tradition 
Grows 


by  DANNY  DANIEL 


i\s  early  as  February,  1974,  the 
Chancellor  of  UNC-G,  James  S. 
Ferguson,  recognized  the  desire  of  a 
small  minority  of  students  to  form 
social  fraternities  and  sororities  at 
UNC-G  and  took  actions  in  that 
direction.  Students  interest  in  clari- 
fying the  university  policy  concerning 
Greek-letter  organizations  prompted 
Chancellor  Ferguson  to  appoint  a 
committee  to  advise  him  on  two  basic 
questions;  (1)  "Should  the  university 
adopt  a  policy  recognizing  frater- 
nities and  sororities?,  and  (2)  Can 
such  organizations  meet  the  needs  of 
various  students  and  contribute  to 
the  welfare  of  the  university 
community?" 

The  committee  on  fraternities  and 
sororities  met  for  ten  months  to 
discuss  the  various  aspects  of  these 
questions.  The  committee  talked 
with  students  interested  in  these 
groups  and  met  with  administrators 
from  other  schools  where  Greek- 
letter  groups  were  active.  The  com- 
mittee also  prepared  a  survey  to  try 
to  discover  the  feelings  of  the  student 
body  towards  Greek  organizations.  In 
the  fall  of  1974  the  committee  chose 
not  to  recommend  the  recognition  of 
such  organizations.  Lack  of  support 
from  the  students  was  cited  as  the 
chief  reason  as  well  as  a  lack  of  quali- 
ty supervision  by  the  administration 
and  faculty. 

In  the  spring  of  1977  Vice 
Chancellor  James  Allen  appointed  an 
Ad  Hoc  committee  on  fraternities 
and  sororities  to  once  again  examine 
the  question  of  establishing  the 
Greek  system  at  UNC-G.  This  com- 
mittee took  into  consideration 
changes  which  had  taken  place  on 
campus  and  priority  consideration 
was  given  to  the  current  requests  by 
students    and    other    organizational 


activities.  The  Student  Government 
held  open  hearings  to  debate  the 
merits  of  university  recognition  of 
fraternities  and  sororities.  A  resolu- 
tion was  forwarded  to  the  chancellor 
on  September  20  calling  for  the 
Board  of  Trustees  of  UNC-G  to  allow 
the  establishment  of  social  frater- 
nities and  sororities  on  campus. 

A  student  petition  calling  for  the 
university  to  recognize  Greek-letter 
social  organizations  was  signed  by 
1176  students  and  presented  to  Stu- 
dent Government. 

A  committee  report  submitted  to 
Vice  Chancellor  Allen  on  December 
18,  1978,  recommended  the  recogni- 
tion of  fraternities  and  sororities  on 
campus  for  a  trial  period  of  five  years. 

A  second  Ad  Hoc  Committee  was 
formed  in  March  of  1979.  This  com- 
mittee presented  Chancellor  William 
E.  Moran  with  a  set  of  conclusions 
and  guidelines  to  direct  the  establish- 
ment of  fraternities  and  sororities. 
These  guidelines  included  policies  on 
housing,  academic  requirements, 
membership,  and  hazing.  The  report 
called  for  the  formation  of  a  screen- 
ing and  review  committee  to  screen 
the  recognition  to  be  given  any  such 
organization.  Once  in  place  the  com- 
mittee would  be  expected  to  provide 
an  annual  review  and  evaluation  of 
existing  fraternities  and  sororities. 

About  the  time  that  the  second  Ad 
Hoc  committee  was  busy  with  its 
task,  Sigma  Tau  Gamma,  a  national 
fraternity,  was  asked  to  form  a  colony 
at  UNC-G  by  several  students  who 
were  based  in  Hinshaw  Dormitory. 
Sigma  Tau  Gamma  granted  colony 
status  to  this  group  and  petitioned 
the  university  for  official  recognition. 
The  university  denied  them  recogni- 
tion saying  it  was  not  prepared  for 
colonization     by     fraternities     or 


sororities.  The  members  of  Sigma 
Tau  Gamma  decided,  however,  to 
continue  to  function  as  a  Greensboro 
colony  and  held  numerous  social  and 
rush  events.  Pi  Kappa  Phi  Fraternity 
also  petitioned  the  university  for 
recognition  in  1979  and  were  turned 
down.  Like  Sigma  Tau  Gamma,  they, 
too,  continued  to  function  as  an 
unrecognized  fraternity. 

The  first  meeting  of  the  screening 
and  review  committee  resulted  in  the 
invitation  of  all  national  fraternities 
and  sororities  to  apply  for  official 
recognition  at  UNC-G.  Over  fifty 
organizations  asked  to  be  considered 
and  nearly  forty  of  these  groups  sent 
representatives  to  LINC-G  to  meet 
with  the  committee.  By  April  24, 
1980,  the  committee  had  selected  five 
national  fraternities  and  nine  na- 
tional sororities  to  receive  approval 
for  colonization  at  LINC-G.  In  the  in- 
vitations were  a  set  of  guidelines 
which  each  group  would  be  expected 
to  follow. 

Earlier  that  spring  Sigma  Phi  Ep- 
silon  Fraternity  was  denied  universi- 
ty recognition.  Upon  release  of  the 
committee's  official  list  of  recognized 
fraternities  the  three  which  had  peti- 
tioned and  been  rejected  strongly 
contested  not  being  on  the  list.  The 
committee  stated  that  these  three 
had  not  ranked  as  high  as  was  re- 
quired to  receive  recognition. 

The  committee  set  the  fall  of  1980 
as  the  date  for  the  selected  frater- 
nities and  sororities  to  colonize.  Four 
national  fraternities  and  seven  na- 
tional sororities  actively  recruited 
members  in  the  fall  of  1980.  Since 
that  time  UNC-G  has  increased  its 
Greek  community  to  include  seven 
chartered  fraternities  and  six 
chartered  sororities.

Spartan  Success 
Story 


by  TY  BUCKNER 


Intercollegiate  athletics  have  ex- 
isted in  some  form  at  the  University 
of  North  Carolina  at  Greensboro  for 
as  long  as  anyone  can  remember. 
Over  the  last  three  to  four  years  the 
UNC-G  athletic  program  has  enjoyed 
success  like  never  before. 

Having  firmly  aligned  itself  with 
the  National  Collegiate  Athletic 
Association  (NCAA)  Division  III  two 
years  ago,  the  athletic  program  has 
steadily  improved.  Spartan  teams  are 
now  nationally  competitive. 

The  achievements  of  two  UNC-G 
teams  in  1982  bear  witness  to  the  re- 
cent upswing  of  the  athletic  program. 
In  March,  the  women's  basketball 
team,  under  first  year  head  coach 
Lynne  Agee,  reached  the  final  game 
of  the  inaugural  NCAA  Division  III 
Championship  tournament  before 
losing  by  one  point  in  overtime. 
Then,  in  November,  the  soccer  team 
captured  the  University's  first  team 
national  championship  by  winning 
the   ninth    NCAA   Division   III   title 


under  the  guidance  of  coach  Mike 
Berticelli  in  his  third  season. 

UNC-G  has  become  a  Dixie  Inter- 
collegiate Athletic  Conference  cham- 
pionship contender  in  each  of  the 
eight  league  sports  that  Spartan 
teams  participate.  For  example, 
every  UNC-G  team  recorded  an 
upper-division  (top  four  teams) 
finish  during  the  1981-82  year,  and 
five  teams  captured  conference 
regular  season  or  tournament 
championships. 

Four  outstanding  coaches  have 
been  largely  responsible  for  the  Spar- 
tan teams'  success,  and  they  were 
recognized  for  their  efforts.  Soccer 
and  golf  coach  Mike  Berticelli,  who 
came  to  UNC-G  from  Thomas  Col- 
lege of  Maine  in  1980,  was  named 
South  Region  Soccer  coach  of  the 
year  in  1980  and  1981.  Women's 
basketball  and  tennis  coach  Lynne 
Agee,  who  came  from  Roanoke  Col- 
lege in  1981,  was  Dixie  Conference 
women's  basketball  coach  of  the  year 


following  the  1981-82  season  and  was 
runner-up  in  balloting  for  national 
Division  III  coach  of  the  year  honors. 
Volleyball  and  Softball  coach  Tere 
Dail,  after  four  seasons  as  a  head 
coach  at  UNC-G,  has  been  named 
Dixie  Conference  coach  of  the  year  in 
both  sports.  Ed  Douma,  who  succeed- 
ed coach  Larry  Hargett  as  men's 
basketball  and  tennis  coach,  brought 
nine  years  of  head-coaching  ex- 
perience when  he  came  in  1982  from 
Kent  State  University  of  Ohio,  a 
Division  I  Program. 

UNC-G  athletes  have  won 
numerous  All-Dixie  Conference 
awards  over  the  past  several  years 
and  some  have  received  all-region 
honors  as  well.  Four  players  have 
been  accorded  All-America  recogni- 
tion. They  are  golfer  Joe  Caldiera  in 
1980,  golfer  Ryan  Fox  in  1981, 
women's  basketball  player  Carol 
Peschel  in  1982,  and  soccer  player 
Louis  Johnstone  in  1982.

The  Rock,  one  of  UNC-G's  most 
memorable  landmarks  and  the 
school's  only  12.7  ton  belletin  board, 
serves  as  the  somewhat  bumpy  can- 
vas for  student  messages  and  graffit- 
ti.  Legend  has  it  that  the  Rock  began 
as  a  tiny  pebble  found  on  campus, 
but  in  reality  the  Rock  was  purchased 
from  Lambeth  Construction  Com- 
pany in  1973  for  $31.78  by  the  Phi 
Kappa  chapter  of  Alpha  Phi  Omega. 
The  men's  service  fraternity  had  the 
Rock    hauled    to    UNC-G    from    a

Jamestown  quarry  as  a  measure  to 
help  save  the  statue  of  Charles  Dun- 
caun  Mclver  which  standsin  front  of 
the  library.  Before  the  Rock,  students 
had  painted  the  statue  of  Dr.  Mclver 
and  the  combination  of  paint  and 
erosion  was  wearing  it  down.  Much  to 
the  relief  of  the  administration  Alpha 
Phi  Omega  initiated  the  Rock  as  the 
new  object  for  painting  on  August  21, 
1973. 
The  Rock  is  still  a  source  of  inter- 


est and  a  source  of  information  on 
campus.  WUAG,  the  campus  radio 
station,  used  it  to  advertise  their  luck 
to  their  graduates,  and  the  Greeks  on 
campus  used  it  often  to  announce 
their  events  and  to  help  promote 
shcool  spirit.  During  the  last  weeks  of 
spring  semester  it  was  also  used  as  an 
election  billboard,  be£u-ing  slogans 
like  "Those  Who  Know  Better  Vote 
For  Katzenstein"  and  "Cyndi  Brown 
For  Attorney  General."

Greensboro's  City  Stage  1982 


Cars  were  absent  from  the  streets  of 
downtown  Greensboro  during  the  weekend 
of  October  1-3,  but  people  certainly  were 
not.  Participation  was  the  real  highhght  of 
the  third  annual  City  Stage  Celebration, 
sponsored  by  the  Greensboro  Arts  Council 
and  Miller  Brewing  Company. 

The  thousands  of  Greensboro  and  sur- 
rounding area  citizens  as  well  as 
newcomers  to  City  Stage  were  awed  by  the 
event.  It  appeared  as  a  mini  World's  Fair. 
Every  interest  was  fulfilled  by  some 
feature  of  the  three-day  affair. 

Fifty  acts  performed  during  Saturday 
and  Sunday.  Highlight  performances  in- 
cluded Pieces  of  A  Dream,  Commander 
Cody  and  Jerry  Walker.  For  all  those  who 
still  had  the  "sand  in  their  shoes,"  Maurice 


Williams  and  the  Zodiacs  were  on  hand  to 
sing  "Miss  Grace."  Well-known  jazz 
trumpeter  Dizzy  Gillespie  could  be  found 
at  Stage  One  throughout  the  weekend. 

The  folk  Art  stage  was  one  of  the  more 
popular  areas.  Crafts  such  as  pottery, 
quilting,  woodcarving  and  basket  making 
were  demonstrated.  For  the  younger  set 
KinderKountry  was  the  place  to  be.  UNC- 
G's  Theatre  for  Young  People  was 
spotlighted  in  this  playground.  The  first 
North  Carolina  Black  Arts  Festival  was 
added. 

"People-watching"  was  one  of  the  other 
activities  of  City  Stage.  It  was  obvious  that 
many  people  were  there  to  have  fun  and 
from  the  look  of  things,  they  certainly  did 
just  that.

year.  The  musical,  performed  in 
Aycock  Auditorium  September  29 
through  October  2.  received  mixed 
reviews  and  drew  capacity  crowds.

tunes.  With  such  classics  as  "Em- 
braceable  You."  "Rut  Not  For  Me." 
and  "I  Got  Rhythm."  the  show's  suc- 
cess was  inevitable 

From  lighting  to  choreography  the 
musical  sparkled.  Especially 
memorable  irerc  the  sets  including 
the    Dude   Ranch,    the   Desert    Star 


showroom,  and  the  Grand  Hotel.  Set

lustrated the  potential  and  dynamic 
talents  of  both  the  Department  of 
Theatre  and  the  School  of  Music.  It 
will  be  remembered  for  its  intriguing 
performances  and  attractive  sets 
and  costumes.  When  one  audience 
member  was  asked  for  his  response 
he  remarked.  "One  of  L'NC-G's 
best'"

cil for  the  Advancement  and  Support 
of  Education,  was  the  featured 
speaker  at  the  Ninetieth  Founders'

that  there  was  a  need  for  private 
support.

Litany  of 
Commemoration 

Almighty  and  Everlasting  God,  Source  of  all  Wisdom  and  Strength:  For  our  faith  in 
the  dignity  of  every  human  soul,  and  the  infinite  worth  of  all  mankind  — 

We  give  thanks  to  Thee,  0  God. 

For  the  preservation  of  our  state  and  nation,  founded  upon  this  faith  in  freedom 
and  brotherhood  — 

We  do  humbly  thank  Thee. 

For  men  and  women  who  throughout  our  history  have  possessed  the  courage  to  pro- 
claim and  defend  these  principles,  that  the  promise  inherent  in  them  might  live  — 

We  thank  Thee,  the  author  of  our  faith. 

And  today,  for  one  who  translated  sacrifice  and  toil  into  the  founding  of  this  in- 
stitution, solemnly  dedicated  to  the  fulfillment  of  that  promise  — 

We  thank  Thee,  as  we  honor  his  memory. 

For  the  unidentified  many  who  caught  from  him  that  vision,  and  by  their  silent  but 
powerful  belief  in  his  dream  made  it  the  Common  Will  — 

We  give  thanks  to  Thee.  O  Lord. 

For  those  within  these  walls,  who  have  devoted  their  lives  to  the  end  that  true 
scholarship  and  enriched  living  might  be  within  the  reach  of  young  people 
everywhere  — 

We  give  thanks  to  Thee,  0  God. 

For  thousands  of  students  who  have  enjoyed  this  heritage,  and  have  given  forth 
manifold  that  which  they  have  received  — 

We  do  thank  Thee,  0  Lord. 

And  ever  mindful  of  the  deep  obligation  to  preserve  and  extend  human  happiness 
through  knowledge  and  service,  we  pray  that  Thy  hand  be  upon  us  in  the  challenge 
of  this  hour,  as  it  was  upon  those  who  dared  to  build  a  college  in  days  of  great 
privation. 

Amen. 

May  those  who  enter  here  recognize  in  Thy  goodness  and  Thy  wisdom  the  strength 
which  may  be  theirs  as  they  join,  in  spiritual  communion  and  fellowship,  those  who 
have  gone  before;  may  they  rejoice  in  that  tradition  of  sound  scholarship  and 
responsible  freedom,  bequeathed  to  them  in  good  faith  by  those  our  honored  dead; 
may  they  count  this  heritage  a  challenge  to  higher  and  nobler  service. 

That  none  among  us  may  falter. 

That  none  among  us  may  forget. 

We  pray  Thee,  0  God. 

For  such  is  our  reasonable  service. 

For  all  the  saints,  who  from  their  labours  rest. 

Who  Thee  by  faith  before  the  world  confess'd. 

Thy  name.O  Jesus,  be  forever  bless  'd. 

Alleluia!  Alleluia!

Performs  in  Lecture  Series 


Each  year  as  a  part  of  the  Universi- 
ty Concert/Lecture  Series,  the  UNC- 
G  Dance  Company  performs.  This 
year  the  company's  concert  consisted 
of  five  dances  encompassing  styles 
from  classic  vallet  to  freeform 
modern  dance,  giving  the  evening  a 
diverse  range  of  entertainment. 

Opening  the  performance  was  a 
modern  dance,  ''Focus", 
choreographed  by  Dorothy  Berea 
Silver,  a  former  Graham  dancer  and 
current  artist-in-residence  at  UNC- 
G.  "Focus"  explores  the  idea  of 
children  discovering  a  new  toy.  The 
dancers  relied  on  an  eight-foot  cir- 
cular platform  fixed  atop  a  large  in- 
flated innertube. 

Following  "Focus"  was  the  only 
classical  ballet  selection,  "Pas  de 
Trois",  from  "Swan  Lake."  The 
dancers  displayed  the  technical 
demands  of  the  dance  with  grace. 

"Fermorphosis  Myths",  a  dance 
pertaining  to  various  myths  about 
women,  was  accompanied  by  unique 
sounds  of  video  games,  incessant 
phones  ringing,  and  the  voices  of  the 
dancers  in  an  up-and-down 
cacophony.  The  lighting  designed  by 
Dana  Lowell  greatly  enhanced  the 
performance. 

Dancers  were  able  to  show  their  in- 
dividual qualities  of  movement  in  the 
performance  of  "War  Babies."  The 
profound  statement  of  war  and  its 
impact  created  intensely  emotional 
images  for  the  audiences. 

The  final  performance  of  the  even- 
ing was  "Video  Jukebox."  Based  on  a 
casual  theme,  dancers  wandered  on 
as  stagehands  and  then  moved 
through  the  audience  greeting  peo- 
ple. "Video  Jukebox"  developed 
through  various  episodes,  each  telling 
a  story.

by  EUC  and  raised  $3000,  an  increase  over  last 
year's  total  by  $1000, 

The  dance,  which  lasted  twelve  hours,  was 
held  on  January  28.  The  theme  was  "Ease  On

entertainment  was  provided  by  the  UNC-G 
doggers.

30  —  Fall  Sprawl 


Fall 
Sprawl 


As  the  leaves  turned  all  shades  of 
red,  orange,  and  yellow,  the  campus 
prepared  to  celebrate  Fall  Sprawl, 
the  offspring  of  Falderal,  which 
helped  students  get  over  the  midterm 
blues.  It  began  on  Wednesday,  Oc- 
tober 7,  with  the  traditional  "Kiss  or 
Treat."  On  Thursday,  October  8,  a 
pep  rally  in  the  quad  brought  the 
students  together  to  cheer  on  the 
Spartans.  The  highlight  of  Fall 
Sprawl  was  held  at  Jamieson 
Stadium:  The  first  Homecoming  in 
the  ninety-one  year  history  of  UNC- 
G.  Elizabeth  "Skoal"  Ford  was 
crowned  UNC-G's  first  Homecoming 
queen.  Although  there  had  been 
much  controversy  over  celebrating 
homecoming,  it  proved  to  unite  the 
school  behind  its  team.  Even  though 
the  Spartans  lost,  the  spirit  of  the 
crowd  never  lessened.  After  the  game, 
the  traditional  fireworks  display  was 
held.  Many  students  held  parties  in 
the  dorm  after  the  game.  The  campus 
was  invaded  by  many  creatures  on 
Friday,  October  9,  who  were  sear- 
ching out  all  the  dorm  parties.  The 
quad  was  filled  with  many  activities 
on  Saturday  and  Sunday.  Students 
enjoyed  the  music  of  "Killowatt"  and 
"Arrogance"  while  ARA  treated  them 
to  a  picnic  in  the  quad.  At  nightfall, 
once  again  creatures  began  to  make 
their  way  to  the  costume  ball  at  EUC 
where  they  danced  to  the  music  of 
"Smyle."  There  was  something  for 
everyone  held  in  the  quad  on  Sunday, 
including  "Fantastic  Feats  for 
Fools."  As  the  sun  began  to  set  over 
the  campus,  it  was  time  once  again 
for  students  to  turn  their  attention  to 
their  books  and  studies.

ams begin,  the  campus  begins  to  glow 
with  thousands  of  candles  lining  the 
streets  and  walkways.  No  other  event 
inspires  the  hope  and  spirit  of  the 
Christmas  season  quite  like 
luminaries.  For  thirteen  years  the 
luminaries  have  symbolized  the  start 
of  the  Christmas  season  for  students. 
Over  five  thousand  candles  glowed 
this  year  as  students  assembled  in  the 
quad  to  sing  carols  around  a  bonfire. 
The  event  was  sponsored  by  Alpha 
Phi  Omega,  EUC,  and  Gamma  Sigma 
-Events  Sigma. 


. , .  Lumanaries  and  Lovefeast 


The  lovefeast  is  an  annual  event  at 
UNC-G  attended  by  over  two  thou- 
sand people  from  the  campus  and  the 
surrounding  community.  This  year's 
service  was  led  by  area  ministers  and 
the  Neo-Black  Society  performed 
during  one  of  the  four  services.  Each 
year's  lovefeast  features  the  singing 
of  carols,  the  reading  of  scripture, 
and  prayer.  Moravian  buns  and  cof- 
fee are  served  to  the  congregation 
and  candles  are  distributed.  When  all 
candles  are  lit  the  service  ends  in  a 
final  carol.  It  has  become  a  tradition 
to  carry  the  glowing  candles  from  the 
service  into  the  night.  It  is  considered 
good  luck  to  reach  your  destination 
with  the  candle  still  lit. 


Black  History  Month 


On  January  30,  1983,  February  was 
proclaimed  Black  History  Month  at 
UNC-G.  A  convocation  was  held  to 
proclaim  the  event,  a  first  at  the 
university.  Chaplain  Ralph  Ross  of 
A&T  State  University  was  the 
featured  speaker  and  spoke  on  "The 
Role  of  the  Black  College  Student  in 
the  "SO's." 

Throughout  the  month  various  lec- 
tures and  special  events  were  held  on 
campus.  Many  groups  participated  in 
the  events.  These  include:  the 
English  Club,  the  Neo-Black  Society, 
the  History  Club,  EUC  Council, 
Delta  Sigma  Theta  Sorority,  the 
Political  Science  Students  Associa- 
tion, the  Residential  College  Human 
Relations  Committee,  and  the

plained that  due  to  poor  soil,  the 
forest  in  Africa  is  disappearing  at  the 
rate  of  1300  acres  an  hour.  Dr. 
Sanchez-Boudy  spoke  on  the  dif- 
ferences of  slavery  in  Cuba  and  the 
U.S.  Citing  these  differences  he  com- 
mented, "The  Blacks  in  Cuba  and  in 
the  Carribean  are  happy  people  with 
a  happy  Black  poetry  and  music.  The 
Black  poetry  of  the  U.S.  is  a  depic- 
tion of  suffering  and  agonies."

April  in  the  "L" 


Every  year  EUC  sponsors  "April  in  the  L".  a 
chance  for  students  to  gather  at  EUC  in  the  afternoon 
and  take  a  break  from  their  studies. 

This  year  the  entertainment  was  held  on  different 
days  and  at  different  times  so  more  students  could 
participate.  Entertainers  for  "April  in  the  L"  were 
Dave  Deaton,  The  Amazing  Jonathon,  and  Pete  Neff 
(shown  on  this  page).  Pete  Neff  is  a  country  rock  and 
folk  singer.  He  believes  in  establishing  a  rapport  with 
his  audience,  and  does  audience  participation  songs. 
He  is  extremely  witty  and  his  songs  included  comedy. 
As  part  of  his  comedy  act  he  introduced  SID,  his 
drummer,  which  is  a  metronome.  Pete  calls  SID  the 
shortest  drummer  in  history.  Throughout  the  after- 
noon 150  people  stopped  by  to  listen  to  Pete  Neff. 


EUC  Celebrates  30th 
Anniversary 


Red  Skelton  was  in  Greensboro  April  25-29  to  help 
celebrate  EUC's  30th  anniversary.  The  week  ended 
with  a  performance  at  the  Greensboro  Coliseum  on 
Friday.  Skelton  was  warmly  welcomed  by  his  fans  at 
the  university  and  throughout  Greensboro.  Skelton 
said  that  he  liked  to  get  to  know  his  audience  before 
the  performance.  Skelton  could  be  seen  almost 
anywhere  in  town  from  the  grocery  store  to  a 
classroom. 

Red  Skelton  was  also  in  Greensboro  in  1978  when 
EUC  was  celebrating  its  25th  anniversary.  Skelton 's 
performance  was  sponsored  by  EUC  and  featured 
such  memorable  characters  as  Freddie  the  Freeloader 
and  Clem  Kadiddlehopper.

Students  Live 


It's  morning.  As  the  student's 
alarm  clock  sounds  and  he  reaches  to 
turn  it  off,  it  dawns  on  him  what  dav- 
it is.  FRIDAY!  After  classes  he  will 
pack  his  things  and  head  home. 
Many  others  like  him  will  also  be 
shuffling  to  their  cars  with  suitcases 
and  books.  This  familiar  site  has  led 


I'NC-G  to  be  nicknamed  a  "suitcase 
college." 

Because  many  students  are  going 
home  for  the  weekend,  one  could  con- 
clude that  for  many,  home  must  not 
be  very  far  away.  Therefore,  students 
take  advantage  of  the  easy  access  to 
their  homes. 


For  the  Weekend 


Although  LINC-G  is  considered  a 
"suitcase  college",  this  trend  appears 
to  be  declining.  One  reason  could  be 
the  expansion  of  Greek  life  at  UNC- 
G,  creating  a  family-away-from  fami- 
ly effect.  Also,  UNC-G  has  broadened 
its  social  structure  with  many  more 
activities  on  campus.  With  the  in- 
crease of  these  social  activities,  school 


spirit    also    seems    to    be    on     the 
increase. 

In  spite  of  the  fact  that  UNC-G's 
nickname,  "suitcase  college",  is 
fading  with  the  incrase  of  activities 
on  and  around  campus,  many 
students  still  insist  there  is  no  place 
like  home.

Perlman  Highlights  the 


The  magical  season  began  with 
Dizzy  Gillespie,  famed  trumpeter  of 
the  forties  who  revolutionized  the 
world  of  jazz  with  bebop  music.  Mr. 
Gillespie  is  renowned  for  his  puffed 
cheeks  and  specialized  horn. 

Twice  this  year  the  North  Carolina 
Symphony  Orchestra  performed  at 
the  university.  On  the  first  occasion 
they  helped  in  celebrating  Founder's 
Day.  Their  second  appearance  on 
February  1  included  guest  pianist 
Edward  Cone. 

The  Gewandhaus  Orchestra  of 
Zeipzig,  founded  by  Johann  Sebas- 
tian Bach  in  1743,  performed  on 
November  8.  This  exceptional  or- 
chestra, under  the  direction  of  Kurt 
Masar,  proved  to  be  among  the 
leading  contenders  for  the  title  of 
"Europe's  Finest  Orchestra." 

Appearing  November  13  was  the 
American  Ballet  Theater  II,  under 
the  direction  of  Richard  Englund. 
The  company  was  a  showcase  of  ris- 
ing young  ballet  stars. 

The  highlight  of  the  Concert 
Season  was  the  performance  by  fam- 
ed violinist  Itzhak  Perlman.  Mr. 
Perlman  has  won  the  coveted  Leven- 
tritt  Competition  and  numerous 
Grammy  awards  for  his  recordings. 
His  presence  on  stage,  on  camera, 
and  in  personal  appearances  speaks 
eloquently  for  the  cause  of  the  han- 
dicapped and  disabled.

Merchant  of  Venice 


UNC-G's  department  of  Com- 
munication and  Theater  presented 
William  Shakespeare's  "The  Mer- 
chant of  Venice"  on  November  3. 
Though  originally  written  as  a  com- 
edy, the  play  is  commonly  performed 
as  a  tragedy  by  eliminating  the  final 
act.  William  C.  Wendt,  director  of  the 
program,  chose  to  present  the  play  as 
a  romantic  comedy. 

Though  the  play  is  based  on  the 
amusing  adventures  of  three  sets  of 
lovers,  a  somber  note  was  incor- 
porated into  the  frolic  by  the  perfor- 
mance of  George  Ward.  He  portrayed 


a  man  consumed  with  vengeance  and 
hatred  who,  after  seeing  the  error  of 
his  ways,  learned  a  valuable  lesson 
about  prejudice  and  the  tragic  events 
which  frequently  follow. 

Since  Shakespearean  performers 
have  traditionally  worn  the  typical 
clothes  of  that  era,  Wendt  decided  to 
try  a  new  approach  using  contem- 
porary costumes.  Costume  designer 
Pat  Dinsmore,  a  senior  majoring  in 
design  and  technical  theater, 
developed  the  costumes  from  the 
latest  high  fashion  designs  for  men 
and  women.

Randy's  courage  and  integrity 
distinguished  him  during  the 
academic  year  as  he  fulfilled  the 
duties  of  vice  president  of  EUC 
Council.  As  the  guiding  force  behind 
the  establishment  of  the  first 
homecoming  game  and  queen  in  the 
University's  ninety-one  year  history. 
Randy  fought  stiff  opposition  to  the 
homecoming  queen  event  and  suc- 
ceeded. Randy  recognized  the  need 


for  a  common  denominator  around 
which  students  could  rally  and 
persevered  until  UNC-G  had  its  first 
homecoming. 

Drawing  on  the  strong  principles 
taught  him  by  his  parents,  Randy 
meets  challenges  and  is  known  for 
overcoming  obstacles.  His  involve- 
ment extends  to  Lambda  Chi  Alpha 
fraternity  as  well  as  serving  as  presi- 
dent of  EUC  Council  for  1983-84. 


Randy's  recognition  of  the  need  for 
restoring  tradition  at  UNC-G  and  his 
courageous  leadership  to  give  the 
University  something  which  will  last 
will  be  remembered  by  colleagues, 
administrators,  and  faculty.  His  con-

One  of  the  most  humble  and 
ignificant  contributors  to  the  better- 
nent  of  Student  Hfe  at  UNC-G  was 
Dalphene  Crowder.  Through  daytime 
jrogramming  and  the  EUC  Council 
ihe  helped  provide  educational  pro- 
grams and  entertainment  to  students 
who  otherwise  might  not  have  had 
such  benefits. 


Her  involvement  with  Gamma 
Sigma  Sigma,  Golden  Chain,  the 
MDA  Superdance,  the  Alumni 
Phonothon,  the  Admissions  Recep- 
tion, and  the  Alumni  Reunion  has  ad- 
ded to  a  service  record  with  which 
few  students  can  compare.  Dalphene 
felt  her  involvement  was  proof  that 
caring,  dedicated  students  make  the 


difference  at  UNC-G. 

Never  content  to  stand  back  and 
simply  let  matters  go,  Dalphene  was  a 
tower  of  strength  and  a  well  of 
goodness  during  her  years  at  UNC-G. 
She  offered  hope  that  traditions  will 
grow  and  remain  strong  at  a  universi- 
ty so  badly  in  need  of  a  greater  image.

Ellen  finds  UNC-G  challenging 
and  a  place  where  she  continues  to 
grow  spiritually,  mentally,  and  emo-

many  friendships  have  increased  her 


appreciation  of  the  University  and 
have  helped  make  her  education  a

A  profound  faith  in  God  is  one  of 
the  most  important  aspects  of  Ellen's 
life.   Her  parents,  she  says,  are  her 


best  friends  and  have  taught  her  how 
God  is  her  source  of  strength.  She  is  a

three  as  her  best  friends  shaped  her

prepared  him  to  meet  the  challenges 
ahead,  Rodney  recognized  the  oppor-

most  of  his  years  at  UNC-G.  He  felt

to  deal  with  others  was  the  greatest 


lesson  he  learned  from  the  fraternity 
experience  and  brotherhood  was  a 
great  reward.

Athletic  development  during  four 
years  of  academic  achievement  is  a 
good  description  of  Marie's  educa- 
tion. She  played  basketball  for  the 
Lady  Spartans  with  more  heart  and 
spirit  than  is  common.  Belonging  to 
Golden  Chain,  Marie  put  as  much 
heart  and  spirit  into  her  studies  as  in- 
to her  game. 

Because  of  her  athletic  participa- 


tion the  Lady  Spartans  enjoyed  an 
impressive  season  and  became  a 
powerhouse  team.  Her  role  as  presi- 
dent and  reactivator  of  the  Physical 
P^ducation  Majors'  Association  em- 
phasized further  the  need  for  student 
involvement  at  UNC-G.  Marie 
became  a  major  figure  within  the

determination  and  dedication  to  her 


department. 

Marie's  love  for  life  and  physical, 
mental  and  spiritual  fitness  made  her 
an  unforgettable  person  at  UNC-G. 
She  accredits  her  parents  with  this 
love  and  enthusiasm.  Marie  believes 
in  being  the  most  and  the  best  she 
can  possibly  be.  She  is  a  great  credit 
to  the  university  for  both  academic 
and  athletic  reasons.

Lewis  Johnstone 


Esker  felt  UNC-G  was  the  ideal 
place  to  gain  his  education  while 
representing  his  school  in  men's 
basketball.  In  his  four  years  he  con- 
tributed to  the  athletic  notability  of 
the  school  with  impressive  playing. 

Like  so  many  students,  Esker  felt 
that  the  University  was  large  enough 


to  allow  maximum  opportunity  yet 
small  enough  to  allow  a  more  per- 
sonal touch  in  professor-student  rela- 
tions. He  felt  that  UNC-G  had  given 
him  a  solid  education  from  which  he 
planned  to  build  a  successful  future, 
hopefully  as  a  professional  person. 
Of  all  the  people  Esker  noted  as  be- 


ing significant  in  his  development, 
his  parents  stood  above  all.  He  hopes 
the  future  will  allow  him  to  be  as 
good  a  parent  to  his  own  as  they  were 
to  him.  His  good  training  and 
background  made  him  a  success  as  an 
athlete  and  as  a  student.

Joe  chose  UNC-G  largely  because 
of  its  location,  its  art  department, 
and  because  of  its  Neo  Black  Society. 
Having  served  as  president  of  NBS, 
he  felt  that  the  organization  taught 
him  to  be  more  sensitive  to  the  needs 
of  others  as  well  as  their  rights.  He 
hopes  NBS  will  always  provide  for 
the    rights    of   students,    black    and 


white. 

Citing  his  family  as  his  primary 
source  of  love  and  understanding, 
particularly  his  mother.  Joe  feels  that 
God  is  the  most  significant  part  of  his 
life.  Joe  stated  that  through  faith  all 
things  are  possible.  He  also  admires 
Martin  Luther  King,  Jr. 

Joe  hopes  to  be  remembered  as  one 


who  got  involved  and  cared  about  his 
fellow  students  —  not  one  who  simp- 
ly went  through  the  motions  of  get- 
ting a  degree.  His  involvement  is 
widely  appreciated  and  very 
respected.  Because  of  Joe's  work, 
future  students  will  have  better 
organizations  such  as  NBS.

Rich  attended  another  university 
prior  to  his  enrollment  at  UNC-G 
and  therefore  appreciates  the  at- 
mosphere here.  He  feels  that  there  is 
enough  exposure  to  other  cultures 
and  lifestyles  in  Greensboro  to 
broaden  one's  mind  and  yet  help  to 
appreciate  one's  own  background.  He 
remarked  that  UNC-G  has  unique 
quality,    large   enough   to    have    the 


resources  for  an  excellent  education 
and  yet  small  enough  to  be  very 
personal. 

Rich  held  offices  with  the  Com- 
muting Student  Association  and 
worked  at  the  Main  Desk  of  EUC 
during  the  year.  He  gained  a  sense  of 
leadership  through  these  oppor- 
tunities and  felt  that  combined  with 
his    education,    such    opportunities 


gave  him  an  advantage   for  future 
career  expectations. 

Rich  believes  that  UNC-G  offers 
the  best  quality  education  available 
in  liberal  arts.  His  support  of  the 
University  on  and  off  the  job  makes 
him  exceptional  and  a  fine  example 
of  how  involvement  by  students  leads

Trudy  touched  the  lives  of 
everyone  she  knew  during  her  four 
years  at  UNC-G.  The  warmth  of  her 
personahty  and  her  genuine  concern 
for  others  endeared  her  to  the 
L'niversity  and  her  involvement  with 
Gamma  Sigma  Sigma  and  her  posi- 
tion as  a  hall  advisor  in  Reynolds 
dorm  enabled  her  to  grow  as  a  leader.

For  Trudy,  UNC-G  became  her 
"home  away  from  home."  She 
describes  her  experiences  as  a  hall 
advisor  with  humor  and  great  insight. 
Each  of  the  young  ladies  with  whom 
she  lived  in  Reynolds  contributed  to 
the  best  memories  she  has  of  her 
senior  year. 

Realizing  that  the  University  gave 


her  opportunities  to  become  a 
responsible  adult,  Trudy  plans  to  use 
her  education  to  help  those  less  for- 
tunate than  she.  Helping  people  is 
the  joy  of  living  for  Trudy  and  her 
four  years  of  service  and  dedication 
to  fellow  students  have  made  her  a 
distinguished  leader  and  friend  to  all.

dynamic,  interested,  concerned.  And 
dynamic  he  is.  A  freshman  at  UNC-G 
this  year,  he  is  a  top-rate  disc  jockey 
at  WUAG.  Jeff  beheves  involvement

self-initiative  to  discover  it. 


Jeff  chose  UNC-G  because  he 
beheves  in  its  motto:  "Where  respon-

the  individual  is  the  most  important 
aspect  to  the  collegiate  atmosphere. 

Jeff  relies  on  his  Christianitv,  his 


parents,  and  his  music  to  get  him 
through  any  events  life  may  hand 
him.  His  friends  and  his  parents  have

Danny  learned  early  in  life  that 
you  have  to  be  open  minded  and  ac- 
cessible to  people;  he  proclaimed  that 
it  was  an  admirable  quality.  Well,  if 
that  is  true.  Danny  is  a  young  man 
deserving  to  be  admired.  Through 
Danny's  many  involvements  at 
UNC-G     he     was     certainly     open- 


minded;  but,  maintained  his  own 
views,  a  quality  he  felt  more  impor- 
tant to  the  individual. 

Danny  feels  that  UNC-G  has  given 
him  a  good  education,  as  well  as, 
practical  knowledge  to  use  in  reality. 
He  has  been  reassured  by  his  extra- 
curricular  involvement   that   he   has 


what  it  takes  to  make  it  in  the  real

Four  years  ago  Danny  was  deter-

Her  nickname  is  infamous  at 
UNC-G  because  of  her  dare  to  dip 
snuff.  The  stories  surrounding  her 
four  years  are  amonj;  the  legends  of 
UNC-G  folklore.  If  strength  of 
character  and  goodwil!  are  important 
attributes  in  an  outstanding  stu- 
dent's life  then  Elizabeth  "Skoal"' 
Ford  is  the  best  example  of  both.  She 
came  to   UNC-G   as   a   peach-faced. 


17-year-old  stumbling  around  in 
amazement  and  graduated  a  highly 
honored,  distinguished  woman. 

Elected  the  first  Homecoming 
Queen  in  the  history  of  UNC-G,  she 
enjoyed  affiliation  with  many 
organizations  and  people  from  ad- 
ministration to  fellow  students.  She 
remarked  that  students  are  never 
restricted     by     the     administration; 


rather,  students  are  restricted  by 
their  lack  of  involvement.  She 
believes  that  students  can  accomplish 
so  much  by  working  more  and  com- 
plaining less. 

Skoal's  involvement  included  her 
role  as  a  charter  member  of  Phi  Mu 
fraternity.  Sweetheart  for  Tau  Kappa 
Epsilon  fraternity,  and  the  first 
Homecoming  Queen  for  UNC-G.

ATHLETICS 


The  players,  not  just  their  athletic  capabilities,  are  a  major  reason 
for  Spartan  success. 

Under  the  Uniforms 


bv  Richard  Mason 


When  trying  to  pinpt)int  exactly 
why  UNC-G  athletic  teams  have  en- 
joyed the  success  they  have  over  the 
past  few  years,  one  very  important 
factor  quickly  becomes  evident.  The 
players,  not  just  their  athletic 
capabilities,  are  a  major  reason  for 
the  recent  success  for  the  Spartans. 

During  his  UNC-G  appearance, 
Tom  Sullivan  pointed  out  how  col- 
lege athletes  are  stereotyped  as 
"jocks."  He  followed  this  by  em- 
phasizing that  they  have  feelings  and 
think  like  everybody  else,  but  we  the 
public  stereotype  them  as  "jocks." 
Adding  to  the  intelligence  and  emo- 
tions that  make  the  Spartans  win,  the 
amount  of  sactifice  each  athlete 
makes,  the  stereotype  "jock" 
becomes  insulting.  A  quick  glance  at 
the  personal  files  of  the  various 
UNC-G  athletes  will  reveal  that  they 
are  not  a  bunch  of  "dumb  jocks." 
Lewis  Johnstone  and  Wendy 
Engelmann  have  not  only  been 
honored  for  their  achievements  on 
the  field  and  court,  but  also  for  their 
academic  success. 

Another  important  part  of  each  of 
the  Spartans  is  their  emotion. 
Whether  they  allow  their  emotions  to 
show  or  keep  them  hidden  until  they 
are  alone  and  out  of  the  public's  eye. 


they  all  play  with  an  intensity  that 
says,  "I  want  to  win." 

The  players  on  the  women's 
basketball  team  and  the  soccer  team 
exemplify  the  two  extremes  of  emo- 
tion. The  soccer  team  seemed  to 
thrive  on  their  on-field  outburst  of 
emotion,  while  the  Lady  Spartans 
waited  until  the  final  second  had 
ticked  off  the  clock  before  they 
celebrated  another  victory  or  left  to 
hide  their  disappointment  from  the 
crowd. 

It  was  this  emotion  that  kept  the 
soccer  team  going  after  losing  to 
Clemson  in  the  Clemson  Invitational 
Tournament  and  after  losing  a  heart- 
breaker  to  Notre  Dame  on  UNC-G's 
first  Homecoming.  Their  emotion 
would  play  a  key  role  in  the  NCAA 
Tournament  as  the  Spartans  played 
all  but  one  game  on  the  road.  Even  in 
the  championship  game,  the  high 
emotion  gave  them  the  edge  they 
needed  on  a  cold  rainy  Sunday  after 
Thanksgiving. 

In  the  same  vein,  it  was  this  type  of 
emotion,  both  the  players  and  the 
fans,  that  enabled  the  men's  basket- 
ball team  to  defeat  North  Carolina 
Wesleyan  and  St.  Andrews  when 
both  teams  were  in  the  top  twenty.  It 


was  the  same  emotion  that  carried 
the  team  through  when  they  upset 
ASU  at  Boone. 

Another  admirable  trait  in  the 
Spartan  athletes  is  the  tremendous 
amount  of  sacrifice  each  one  makes. 
They  sacrifice  free  time,  study  time, 
and  make  other  sacrifices  only  they 
know. 

The  initial  sacrifice  of  free  time  in- 
volves studying  late  while  most 
students  have  already  called  it  a 
night.  They  have  to  use  what  free 
time  they  may  have  for  studying 
because  while  they  are  practicing, 
playing  or  traveling,  the  average  stu- 
dent studies  or  wastes  time. 

A  letter  to  theCarolinian  last  fall 
pointed  out  that  UNC-G  athletes  are 
just  like  the  non-athletic  students. 
They  go  to  class  and  they  eat  in  the 
same  cafeterias.  In  many  ways  they 
are  like  the  non-athletic  students, 
but  in  ways  they  are  markedly  dif- 
ferent. The  combination  of  scholar- 
ship, athletic  ability,  emotion,  and 
sacrifice  makes  each  player  the  win- 
ner both  on  and  off  the  field  or  court. 
It  is  the  unique  qualities  of  each 
player,  each  team,  that  makes  UNC- 
G  athletes  one  of  the  finest  represen- 
tatives for  this  great  university.

Volleyball 


Spikers  Dominate  Dixie  Conference 


Lisa  Beverly 


^ 


One  of  the  key  1  players  on  the 
women's  volleyball  team  this  year 
was  sophomore  hitter  Lisa  Beverly 
from  Mt.  Airy.  Beverly  was  player  of 
the  week  several  times  in  the  Dixie 
Conference  and  was  nominated  by 
coach  Tere  Dail  for  an  All-  American 
honors. 

As  a  hitter  and  blocker,  Lisa's  job 
at  the  net  was  to  drive  balls  home  for 
a  "kill"  or  block  the  opponents  shot 
again  for  either  a  side  out  or  a  score. 
Beverly  performed  her  job  very  well, 
as  did  all  of  her  teammates. 

In  one  two  game  stretch  she  had  a 
hitting  percentage  of  .714  and  was 
leading  the  team  in  hitting  percen- 


tage with  .514.  A  players  hitting 
percentage  is  based  on  the  number  of 
hits  a  player  has  resulting  in  either 
points  or  a  side  out. 

Beverly  was  a  very  energetic 
player  both  on  and  off  the  court. 
During  matches  she  would 
energetically  congratulate  her  team- 
mates after  a  good  play  and  when 
she  was  on  the  bench  resting,  she 
would  give  her  team  vocal  support. 
Coach  Dail  has  been  very  pleased 
with  the  way  Lisa  has  developed  as  a 
player  over  the  past  two  seasons  and 
feels  Lisa  will  develop  into  an  ex- 
cellent player  by  the  time  she  ■ 
graduates.  J 


When  coach  Tere  Dail's  women's 
volleyball  team  took  the  court  in  1982 
she  was  not  too  sure  of  how  she  felt 
about  the  season.  Although  the  team 
had  a  lot  going  for  it  in  having  four 
returnees  from  the  1981  Dixie  Con- 
ference Tournament  championship 
team,  it  was  still  a  young  team,  with 
only  two  seniors  and  four 
sophomores. 

Her  doubts  and  fears  were  soon 
laid  to  rest  as  the  Spartans  overcame 
their  youth,  after  having  played 
together  awhile.  By  the  season's  end. 
the  Spartans  won  the  conference  ti- 
tle, the  Dixie  Conference  Tourna- 
ment, and  received  a  bid  to  play  Ohio 
Northern  in  the  NCAA  Tournament. 

Altht>ugh  the  winning  involved  a 
team  effort,  there  were  four  players 
who  had  outstanding  seasons.  Senior 
Brenda  Suits  made  first  team  All- 
Conference,  first  team  All- 
Tournament  and  was  MVF  of  the 
conference  tournament.  Sophomore 
Maggie  Hayes  also  had  made  first 
team  All-Conference  and  All- 
Tournament.  Sophomore  Lisa  Bever- 
ly joined  Suits  and  Hayes  and  the 
first  team  in  both  All-Conference  and 
All-Tournament.  Sophomore  defen- 
sive specialist  Shirese  Moore  made 
second  team  All-Conference  and  join- 
ed her  teammates  on  the  All- 
Ti>urnament  team. 


Maggie  Hayes 


Another  one  iif  the  key  players  fur 
this  year's  team  nas  sophomore 
Maggie  Hayes.  Maggie's  job  uas  to 
set  halls  for  the  team  's  hitters.  Coach 
Bail  uas  eery  pleased  with  Maggie's 
setting  this  year  and  by  the  leay 
Maggie  developed  her  serving  and 
hitting  game.  Like  Beverly  Suits, 
and  Moore,  Hayes  made  Dixie  Con- 
ference Player  of  the  Week  at  least 
once  during  the  seasim. 

Although  Maggie's  strength  is  her 
setting,    she    had    two    very    strong 


games  serving.  In  the  game  against 
(ireensboro  College  when  the 
Spikers  clinched  at  least  a  tie  for  the 
conference  title.  Maggie  had  four 
service  aces  In  one  other  game,  she 
had  seven  straight  points  while 
serving. 

Hayes,  like  the  other  sophomores 
on  this  year's  team  will  be  back  ne.xt 
year  as  the  Spartans  volleyball  team 
develi}ps  into  a  nationally  recogni:-

In  only  their  second  year  of  affilia- 
tion with  the  Dixie  conference,  the 
Spartans  had  little  trouble  winning 
the  conference  regular  season  title. 
Their  only  stiff  competition  came 
from  North  Carolina  Wesleyan  Col- 
lege, who  had  given  the  Spikers  their 
only  conference  defeat  early  in  the 
season.  UNC-G  avenged  the  loss  by 
defeating  North  Carolina  Wesleyan 
in  a  two-hour  marathon  in  Rocky 
Mount. 

When  the  season  neared  its  end, 
the  Spartans  held  their  destiny  in 
their  own  hands.  Two  of  their  final 
four  regular  season  matches  were 
against  Dixie  Conference  opponents. 
They  first  beat  Greensboro  College  to 
claim  a  tie  for  the  title.  Next  they 


traveled  to  Laurinburg  to  play  St. 
Andrews  for  the  outright  title.  The 
Spartans  defeated  St.  Andrews,  cap- 
turing the  conference  title  and  a  first 
round  bye  in  the  league  tournament. 

In  the  semifinals  of  the  Dixie  Con- 
ference Tournament  the  Spartans 
defeated  St.  Andrews.  In  the  finals 
they  were  pitted  against  the  only  con- 
ference team  to  have  defeated  them, 
North  Carolina  Wesleyan.  Again  they 
defeated  them  for  the  second  straight 
championship. 

The  spikers  received  a  bid  to  play 
in  the  NCAA  Division  III  Tourna- 
ment. In  the  opening  round  UNC-G 
traveled  to  play  Ohio  Northern 
University  where  they  were  handed  a 
season  ending  loss.

A  Season  of  Soccer  Celebration 


The  Spartans  line  up  for  the  National  Anthem  lieture  the  I  'niversity's  first  Homecoming  game. 


It  began  as  a  year  of  promise  for 
the  1982  UNC-G  Soccer  team.  It  was 
returning  a  strong  nucleus  from  a 
team  that  had  made  it  to  the  finals  of 
the  NCAA  Division  III  South-New 
Jersey  Regional  playoff  before  losing 
to  eventual  national  champion 
Glassboro  State  College.  By  the  end 
of  the  year  the  team  had  proved  how 
good  it  was  by  defeating  Bethany 
College  of  West  Virginia  for  the  na- 
tional championship. 

The  season  began  very  quietly  for 
the  Spartans  as  they  were  only  able 
to  win  their  first  few  games  over  Con- 
ference opponents  by  one  to  two 
goals.  During  the  fourth  game  of  the 
year,  they  were  ranked  second  in  the 
nation  and  playing  against  tradi- 
tionally tough  Averett  College.  The 
Spartans  were  only  able  to  score  one 
goal  and  lost  2-1. 

The  Spartans  continued  their  win- 
ning ways  in  their  next  game  against 
High  Point  College  with  a  2-1  victory. 
They  continued  their  slim  win 
margins  until  their  games  against 
Catawba  and  St.  Andrews.  In  the  two 
games,  the  Spartans  exploded  for  a 
total  of  twenty-six  goals  while  only 
allowing  one  each  by  Catawba  and  St. 
Andrews. 

Head  coach  Mike  Berticelli  felt  the 
team  was  finally  beginning  to  play 
"its  game"  after  the  two  convincing 
wins.  This  coming  together  of  the 
team  could  not  have  come  together  at 
a  better  time  as  the  team  was  going 
into  the  "meat  of  its  schedule." 

The  first  part  of  the  final  part  of 
the  schedule  was  a  trip  to  Clemson  to 
play  in  the  Clemson  Invitational.  In 


the  first  round,  the  Spartans  blanked 
Division  I  opponent  Appalachian 
State  5-0  to  set  up  a  meeting  with 
perennial  Division  I  powerhouse 
Clemson.  The  Spartans  were  able  to 
shut  the  Tigers  out  for  the  first 
forty-five  minutes  but  the  Tigers  got 
two  early  goals  and  went  on  for  a  2-0 
win.  The  Spartans  then  went  on  a 
three  game  winning  streak  defeating 
Wake  Forest,  Elon,  and  East 
Carolina. 

Then  came  one  of  the  biggest 
games  in  Spartan  soccer  history:  a 
Homecoming  Game  against  Notre 
Dame.  The  Spartans  battled  Notre 
Dame  to  a  1-1  tie  in  regulation.  After 
the  Irish  got  two  quick  goals  and  put 
a  damper  on  the  festivities  by  defeat- 
ing the  Spartans  3-1.  The  Irish  goals 


Freshman  goalie  Tim  Borer  takes  a  goal  kicli 
against  Clemson. 


were  the  most  scored  against  UNC-G 
ail  year. 

The  Spartans  tuned  up  for  the 
NCAA  Tournament  by  defeating 
Methodist  5-0.  The  win  over 
Methodist  put  the  Spartans  in  a 
three  way  tie  for  the  Dixie  Con- 
ference title.  The  Spartans  traveled 
north  to  begin  play  against  Lyn- 
chburg College  in  the  opening  round 
of  the  South  New  Jersey  Regional. 
The  3-0  victory  over  Lynchburg  set 
up  a  grudge  match  between  UNC-G 
and  Glassboro  State,  the  team  that 
eliminated  them  last  year.  The  SpM- 
tans  got  their  revenge  and  the  South 
New  Jersey  Regional  Championship 
with  a  3-1  victory. 

In  the  next  round  the  Spartans 
were  matched  against  the  number 
one  ranked  Plymouth  State.  Thanks 
to  Mike  Sweeney's  goal  in  the  second 
overtime,  the  Spartans  were  in  the 
quarterfmjds  against  Cortland  State. 
Again  it  was  overtime  and  again  it 
was  Mike  Sweeney  scoring  a  goal  for 
a  victory  in  sudden  death  overtime, 
the  first  overtime  the  score  still  re- 
mained tied.  In  the  second  overtime 

The  Spartans  then  had  one 
obstacle  between  them  and  the  Na- 
tional Championship.  For  once  in  the 
tournament  the  Spartans  were  play- 
ing in  Greensboro  at  Guilford  Col- 
lege. On  a  cold,  rainy  day  the  Spar- 
tans proved  themselves  champions. 
Fittingly  it  was  Mike  Sweeney  who 
scored  the  winning  goal.  The  clincher 
came  in  the  second  half  on  a  penalty 
kick.  The  Bisons  came  back  later  to 
score  one  goal;  it  was  not  enough  as 
the  Spartans  won  2-1.

Johnstone  Finishes  on  Top 


One  name  that  is  near  the  top  of 
the  list  of  outstanding  UNC-G 
athletes  is  Lewis  Johnstone,  the  all- 
time  leading  goal  scorer  in  Spartan 
soccer  history.  Johnstone,  of 
Lochmaben,  Scotland,  did  not  come 
to  UNC-G  to  play  soccer.  In  fact,  the 
sport  of  soccer  was  new  to  him  after 
playing  rugby  in  high  school. 

Johnstone,  "a  coach's  player,"  has 
excellent  speed,  quickness,  and  the 
knack  of  being  where  he  should  be  at 


the  right  time.  Another  one  of  his 
strengths  is  his  ability  to  play  hurt. 
He  had  an  injury  in  the  early  part  of 
the  1982  season  that  should  have 
kept  him  on  the  bench.  Instead,  he 
played  and  was  instrumental  in  the 
Spartan's  early  season  success.  In  his 
four  years  at  UNC-G,  Johnstone 
scored  66  goals.  He  scored  28  his 
freshman  year,  a  school  record,  six 
his  sophomore  year,  14  his  junior 
year,  and  18  his  senior  year. 


The  impressive  thing  about 
Johnstone's  scoring  in  his  senior  year 
was  that  he  always  had  the  op- 
ponents best  player  covering  him. 
Although  he  did  not  lead  the  team  in 
scoring,  he  was  a  stabilizing  factor  on 
the  field.  When  Bethany  College 
began  its  surge  late  in  the  second  half 
of  the  national  championship  game 
coach  Berticelli  put  Johnstone  in  the 
backfield  to  help  settle  the  team 
down  and  for  defensive  purposes. 

A  lot  of  great  things  have  been  said 
about  Johnstone,  but  the  softspoken 
striker  has  never  been  one  to  blow  his 
own  horn.  Instead  of  talking  about 
himself,  he  just  played  the  game  to 
the  best  of  his  ability.  As  the  record 
book  shows,  his  best  very  good.

leading  goalscorer  with  66.

Although  the  Spartan's  road 
to  the  National  Championship 
was  by  no  means  easy,  by  look- 
ing at  the  team's  statistics  it's 
easy  to  see  why  the  Spartans 
enjoyed  such  success. 

For  the  season,  playoffs  in- 
cluded, the  Spartans  outscored 
their  opponents  seventy-six 
goals  to  eighteen.  The  Spar- 
tans almost  equaled  their  op- 
ponents' total  output  for  the 
season  in  their  14-1  rout  of 
Catawba.  Notre  Dame  scored 
three  goals  against  the  Spar- 
tans, the  most  in  the  season. 
While  the  Spartans  blanked 
nine  of  their  opponents,  two  in 
the  playoffs,  Clemson  was  the 
only  team  able  to  keep  them 
scoreless. 

The  Spartans  were  led  in 
scoring  by  sophomore  Mike 
Sweeney.  Sweeney  scored 
twenty-three  goals  and  had 
thirteen  assists  for  fifty-nine 
points.  Lewis  Johnstone  was 
second  with  forty-two  points. 


Johnstone  had  eighteen  goals 
and  six  assists.  Third  for  the 
Spartans  in  scoring  was  Louis 
Borges  with  fifteen  goals,  ten 
assists,  and  forty  points. 


The  team,  having  its  best 
record  ever,  a  19-3  mark,  made 
an  impressive  record  indeed. 
The  team  ranks  6-1  in  the 
tournament.

For  the  UNC-G  soccer  team,  its  2-1 
victory  over  Bethany  College  of  West 
Virginia  in  the  NCAA  Division  III 
Championship  game  was  a  glorious 
finish  to  the  1982  season. 

Before  the  championship  final 
game  the  Spartans  had  compiled  a 
14-3  regular  season  record.  In  the 
playoffs  the  Spartans  had  already 
defeated  defending  champion 
Glassboro  State  and  number  one- 
ranked  Plymouth  State. 

The  dream  of  a  national  champion- 
ship had  been  on  the  minds  of 
players,  coaches,  and  fans  for  a  long 
time.  When  the  team  took  the  field 
Sunday,  November  28,  it  was  the 
dream  coming  true. 

In  the  early  minutes  of  the  game 
the  Spartans  fired  a  number  of  shots 
at  the  opponent  goal.  The  Spartans 
drew  first  blood  at  the  25:45  mark 
when  Louis  Borges  took  his  rebound- 
ed shot  off  Bison  goalie  Rod  Hines 
and  put  it  past  him  for  a  1-0  Spartan 
lead. 

The  Spartans  continued  applying 
pressure  on  the  Bisons'  goal  and 
eventually  got  a  penalty  kick  on  a 
hand  ball.  Sophomore  Mike  Sweeney 
took  the  penalty  kick  and  drilled  it 
past  Hines  for  a  commanding  lead  of 
2-0. 

The  Bisons  came  back  in  the  final 
ten  minutes  and  scored  their  only 
goal  after  a  pushing  penalty  on  the 
Spartans.  The  Bisons  pressured 
Spartan  goalie  Tim  Borer  but  he  pro- 
ved equal  to  the  task  and  kept  the 
Bisons  from  scoring  a  winning  goal. 

The  Bisons  outshot  the  Spartans 
15-13,  though  the  Spartans  had  the 
lead  at  halftime  10-3.  Borer  made 
nine  saves  for  the  Spartans  and 
Hines  had  eleven  for  the  Bisons. 

For  the  soccer  team  it  was  a  day 
when  shouting  "We're  Number  l!" 
had  become  reality.

The  72-69  win  came  as  a  surprise  to 
St.  Andrews  who  had  enjoyed  as 
much  as  a  14  point  lead  in  the  first 
half.  Senior  guard  Will  Peterson,  a 
Division  III  All-American,  was  the 
leading  scorer  in  the  game's  first  half, 
with  17  points.  Powell  and  Tatum 
contributed  the  leading  points  in  the

When  looking  back  on  the  82-83 
basketball  season,  one  thing  will 
stand  out  in  the  women's  basketball 
team's  memory  —  injuries.  The  first 
injury  came  when  senior  and  second 
all-time  scorer  in  women's  basketball, 
Jody  Mangus  injured  a  knee  in  the 
opening  game  at  Guilford  College. 
Jody  was  able  to  play,  but  was  unable 
to  regain  her  form  before  the  season 
ended.  The  next  injury  was  to 
sophomore  Karen  Crouch.  Like 
Mangus  she  suffered  a  knee  injury 
and  was  a  wing  player.  The  final,  and 
in  some  ways,  the  most  devastating 
injury,  came  when  sophomore  Sherry 
Sydney  was  lost  for  the  remainder  of 
the    season    when    she    came    down 


wrong  against  Longwood  College.  But 
even  with  the  devastating  injuries, 
the  Spartans  were  able  to  record  an 
11-1  conference  record  and  an  18-6 
regular  season  record. 

In  the  first  part  of  the  season 
UNC-G  shaped  a  5-2  record  with 
wins  over  Guilford  and  Mesa  Col- 
leges. Their  only  losses  came  to  Divi- 
sion I  schools:  The  University  of 
Virginia  and  the  University  of 
Missouri.  The  games  against  Mesa 
College  and  the  University  of 
Missouri  came  in  the  University  of 
Northern  Colorado  Tournament, 
where  UNC-G  finished  third. 

The  second  half  of  the  season 
opened  with  an  eight  game  winning 


streak  that  Elon  College  stopped 
with  a  four  point  loss.  During  their 
eight  game  winning  streak,  the  Spar- 
tans defeated  five  conference  op- 
ponents and  cross-town  rival 
Guilford  College.  The  loss  to  Elon 
started  a  downhill  trend  for  UNC-G 
that  saw  the  Spartans  lose  three  of 
their  next  four  games.  In  addition  to 
the  loss  to  Elon,  UNC-G  lost  to 
Lenior-Rhyne  and  St.  Andrews.  The 
loss  to  St.  Andrews  was  their  first 
conference  loss  in  two  years  and  their 
second  loss  to  a  Division  III  school 
since  the  championship  game  loss  to 
Elizabethtown.  UNC-G  snapped 
back  with  four  straight  wins  over  con- 
ference opponents  before  finishing 
the  season  with  a  loss  to  UNC-W.

Women  Repeat  as  Tournament 
Champs 

When  UNC-G  traveled  to  Rocky 
Mount  they  had  more  in  mind  than 
repeating  as  champions  in  the  DIAC 
Tournament.  They  wanted  to  avenge 
their  only  conference  loss  in  two 
years. 

The  chance  to  avenge  their  earlier 
77-74  loss  to  St.  Andrews  came  in  Fri- 
day's semi-final  game.  The  Spartans 
opened  with  a  12-4  lead  early  and  St. 
Andrews  was  never  a  threat  to  the 
Spartans. 


In  the  first  half  the  combination  of 
a  stingy  UNC-G  defense  and  poor 
shooting  by  the  Lady  Knights  led  to  a 
39-24  halftime  lead  for  UNC-G.  The 
Spartans  opened  the  second  half  by 
burning  St.  Andrews  with  a  20-2  blitz 
and  coasted  into  the  championship 
game  with  a  75-47  victory. 

UNC-G  was  led  by  senior  Marie 
Cawley  who  pumped  in  17  points  and 
grabbed  8  rebounds.  Sophomore 
Renee  Coltrane  added  12  rebounds 
and  13  points. 

In  the  championship  game  against 
Christopher   Newport   the   Spartans 


overcame  some  early  mistakes  and 
cut  the  Lady  Marlins  lead  to  two,  34- 
32  at  the  half.  Although  the  Spartans 
lacked  their  intensity  in  the  first  half, 
the  second  half  was  a  different  story 
as  they  played  to  their  finest 
capabilities.  The  Spartans  outscored 
the  Lady  Marlins  14-7  in  the  first  five 
minutes  and  continued  to  build  their 
lead.  They  captured  their  second 
straight  DIAC  Championship  80-64. 

Junior  Michele  Blazevich  led  the 
Spartans  with  30  points  and  15  re- 
bounds. Marie  Cawley  scored  17 
points  and  added  11  rebounds. 
Sophomore  Brenda  Tolbert  con- 
tributed 9  assists. 

In  addition  to  winning  the  cham- 
pionship the  Spartans  also  placed 
three  players  on  the  All-Tournament 
team  and  had  the  Tournament  MVP. 
Senior  Marie  Casley  was  named 
MVP  and  shared  one  of  the  three 
positions  on  the  All-Tournament 
team  with  Michele  Blazevich  and 
Brenda  Tolbert.

Although  UNC-G  did  not  achieve 
the  team  goal  of  winning  the  Na- 
tional Championship,  some  of  their 
players  had  All-Star  seasons.  Junior 
center  Michele  Blazevich  was  named 
to  the  All-Tournament  team  in  the 
University  of  Northern  Colorado 
Tournament,  All-Conference  in  the 
Dixie  Conference,  All-Tournament 
for  the  DIAC  Tournament,  and 
nominated  for  All-American  honors. 
During  the  regular  season,  Michele 
led  the  team  in  scoring  with  14.2  a 
game,  was  second  in  rebounding  with 
9.0  per  game,  and  intimidated  her  op- 
ponents on  the  inside.  In  the  con- 
ference tournament,  Blazevich 
played  brilliantly  despite  being  in 
constant  foul  trouble.  In  the  two 
games  she  played,  she  shot  61  "^p  from 
the  field,  scored  40  points,  and  grabb- 
ed 21  points.  In  the  South  Regional, 
she  turned  in  fine  games  against 
Knoxville  College  and  Rust  College. 
For  the  tournament,  she  scored  33 
points  and  grabbed  15  rebounds. 

Senior  Marie  Cawley  also  played  a 
banner  year.  Marie  made  the  All- 
Tournament  team  and  was  named 
MVP  in  the  DIAC  Tournament. 
Cawley  was  the  second  leading  scorer 
during  the  season  with  an  11.8 
average  and  averaged  over  three 
assists  and  four  rebounds  a  game. 
But  it  was  in  the  conference  tourna- 
ment that  Cawley  played  some  of  her 
best  basketball.  In  the  two  games,  she 
shot  47  "^t  from  the  field,  scored  34 
points  and  grabbed  19  rebounds. 

Joining  Michele  and  Marie  on  the 
All-Tournament  team  was 
sophomore  guard  Brenda  Tolbert. 
Tolbert  sparked  the  team  on  offense 
throughout  the  year  and  played  an 
important  part  when  the  Spartans 


used  their  press  on  defense.  Brenda 
led  the  teams  in  assists  with  an 
average  of  five  per  game  and  averag- 
ed over  nine  points  a  game.  In  the 
tournament,  Brenda  hustled  on  both 
ends  of  the  court,  dishing  out  assists 
and  making  steals.  Although  she  only 
scored  16  points,  she  had  11  assists 
and  made  three  steals.  In  the  South 
Regional,  Tolbert  played  70  of  a 
possible  80  minutes.  In  addition  to 
putting  in  her  playing  time,  she  had 
nine  assists  and  eight  rebounds. 

Although  she  played  superbly 
throughout  the  season  and  the  con- 
ference tournament,  Wendy 
Engelmann  did  not  get  her  just 
rewards  until  the  South  Regional 
where  she  made  the  All-Tournament 
South  Regional  team.  In  the  South 
Regional,  she  shot  52 '^'i  from  the  field 
and  scored  41  points  in  two  games.  In 
addition  to  the  rebounds,  she  had 
eight  assists.  Like  Tolbert, 
Engelmann  spent  a  lot  of  minutes  on 
the  court  during  the  two  games,  39 
against  Knoxville  and  36  against 
Rust. 

One  member  of  the  Spartans  who 
did  not  receive  the  recognition  she 
deserved  was  forward  Renee  Col- 
trane.  Coltrane  led  the  team  in  re- 
bounding, averaged  double  figures  in 
scoring  and  was  part  of  UNC-G's 
strong  inside  game.  Despite  fouling 
out  in  both  games  of  the  conference 
tournament,  she  scored  25  points  and 
pulled  down  23  rebounds.  Again  in 
the  South  Regional,  she  was 
hampered  with  fouls  but  turned  in 
two  excellent  games.  She  scored  25 
points  and  31  rebounds,  22  of  the  re- 
bounds came  in  the  consolation  game 
against  Rust.

ALPHA  CHI  OMEGA 


The  social  sorority  of  Alpha  Chi  Omega  was  founded  on  October 
15,  1885  by  music  students  at  DePauw  University  in  Indiana. 
Membership  in  the  sorority  is  open  to  girls  of  all  majors.  A 
cumulative  grade  point  average  of  2.3  is  required  for  members  to  be 
initiated.  The  twenty-one  pearls  earned  by  a  pledge  and  found  on 
the  initiates'  pin,  serve  as  lasting  reminder  of  the  Alpha  Chi  Omega 
membership,  experience  in  self-governing,  living,  and  encourage- 
ment to  develop  the  fullest  potential  as  an  educated  woman. 
Membership  in  Alpha  Chi  Omega  is  an  achievement.  Alpha  Chi 
Omega's  altruistic  projects  include  participation  with  the  Easter 
Seals  Agency,  the  Cystic  Fibrosis  Foundation,  the  Mac  Dowell  Col- 
ony, and  the  Self-Help  Toy  Project.  The  colors  are  scarlet  and  olive 
green;  the  flower,  the  red  carnation;  and  the  badge,  the  Greek  Lyre. 
The  motto  is:  "Together  let  us  seek  the  Heights."

Alumni  Return 


Sunday,  May  15,  1983,  was  the  end  of  a  long  race  for  nearly  two 
thousand  UNC-G  seniors  and  other  degree  candidates.  It  was  also 
the  beginning  of  yet  another  race  for  jobs  and  higher  education. 
Jobless,  ambitious,  elated  by  the  magic  of  the  moment  we 
assembled  outside  the  Greensboro  Memorial  Coliseum  in  the 
warm  and  windy  spring  morning  to  honor  and  to  be  honored.  In- 
side was  the  grail  of  our  American  collegiate  experience  —  the 
goal  for  which  we  had  labored,  worried,  prayed,  and  persevered: 
the  diploma. 

The  calendar  carried  endless  demands  in  the  six  weeks  prior  to 
commencement.  We  sold  commencement  invitations,  elected 
alumni  class  officers,  selected  the  class  speaker,  elected  twenty 
outstanding  seniors,  held  parties,  gave  dinner  parties,  and  began 
our  last  stretch  toward  that  most  celebrated  event  called 
graduation. 

The  election  of  alumni  class  officers,  twenty  outstanding 
seniors,  and  the  class  speaker  is  a  tradition  originated  in  the  late 
1890s  and  each  year  causes  unrest  and  a  rash  of  questions  con- 
cerned with  the  reason  this  even  occurs  so  late  in  the  year.  In- 
deed, why  elect  class  officers  only  weeks  before  commencement? 

Answers  came  from   Miss  Barbara  Parrish   ('48)   and  Dean 


Clarence  0.  Shipton.  For  seventy  years  this  institution  allowed 
class  spirit  to  thrive  with  officers  for  each  class.  This  tradition 
was  obliterated  by  the  first  male  student  government  president 
who  felt  female  class  officers  were  a  threat  to  his  power.  This  is 
one  of  the  best  examples  of  how  students  confuse  power  with  ego 
and  threaten  the  existence  of  tradition.  When  in  1983,  Kim 
Theriault  succeeded  as  the  first  woman  student  government 
president  since  1972,  she  vowed  to  restore  the  tradition  of  class 
officers  for  each  class.  We  are  waiting. 

The  election  of  alumni  class  officers,  however,  remains  and  is 
misunderstood.  The  purpose  of  this  election  is  to  elect  three  of- 
ficers, two  to  coordinate  class  affairs  in  the  years  following 
graduation.  The  other  officer  is  the  representative  to  the  Alumni 
Board  and  serves  for  three  years.  The  elected  president  and  vice 
president  are  delegated  responsibilities  by  the  Alumni  Associa- 
tion and  serve  their  class  as  lifetime  officers  for  reunions  and 
other  class  matters.  The  1983  Alumni  Class  Officers  are  Jill  P. 
Cutler,  Alumni  Board  Representative,  Marks  C.  Lane,  Vice  Presi- 
dent, and  Veda  M.  Shamsid  —  Deen,  President. 

It  is  also  tradition  to  elect  twenty  outstanding  seniors  in 
recognition  of  outstanding  service  to  our  University  community. 
From  the  Class  of  1983:  Alisa  Abrams,  Diane  Ball,  Beth  Binner, 
Ken  Brinson,  Joy  Britt,  Shari  Chicurel,  Dalphene  Crowder,  Jill 
Cutler,   Danny   Daniel,   Denise   Foster,   Jill   Hubbard,   Teresa 


Lockamy,  Fred  Martin,  Ricky  McKeel,  Bill  Murray,  Nina 
Ramseur,  Richard  Roper,  Veda  Shamsid-Deen,  Kendra  Smith, 
and  Celeste  Wood. 

The  story  behind  the  election  and  selection  of  the  class  speaker 
for  1983  brings  smiles  to  the  faces  of  those  who  know  her.  From 
the  moment  she  learned  of  her  nomination  Kendra  Smith  went  to 
work,  preparing  with  deep  conviction  and  determination  for  the 
honor  to  come.  Perhaps  no  other  candidate  measured  his  or  her 
success  as  a  servant  of  the  University  by  the  outcome  of  this  selec- 
tion as  Kendra  did.  Each  candidate  faced  a  committee  comprised 
of  five  seniors  and  two  distinguished  faculty  members.  This  com- 
mittee consisted  of  Dr.  Lawrence  Fadely,  Dr.  Robert  Stephens, 
Teresa  Lockamy,  Denise  Foster.  Dona  Walk,  Danny  Daniel,  and 
Marks  Lane.  Candidates  gave  a  brief  presentation  and  were  then 
interviewed  by  the  committee.  Of  the  eight  presentations,  one 
showed  more  promise  and  preparation  than  the  others. 

On  the  second  and  final  day  of  the  presentations  Kendra  ad- 
dressed the  committee  without  the  expected  nervousness  so  com- 
mon to  the  circumstances.  Fearlessly  she  delivered  the  words  with 
rhythm,  pause,  dynamics,  and  the  confidence  which  qualified  her 
as  the  front-runner  in  the  competition.  Had  she  not  removed  note 
cards  from  the  podium  following  her  presentation  we  wouldn't 
have  known  they  existed.  The  door  shut  behind  her.  Eyebrows 
raised  and  smiles  stretched  the  faces  of  the  panel  members.  Her 
words  refreshed  us;  her  conviction  convinced  us. 

Off  went  the  heels.  The  shoulders  dropped.  Just  above  the  con- 
ference room  where  we  deliberated  and  tallied  the  results  Kendra 
retreated  to  her  office  at  The  Carolinian.  I  toyed  with  my  pen 
and  paper  and  fidgeted  like  a  child  restrained  long  after  his  in- 
terest was  spent.  The  moment  Dr.  Fadely  revealed  the  fifth  of 
seven  first-place  votes  for  Kendra  I  sprang  from  my  seat,  asking 
to  be  excused  to  visit  the  men's  room.  Whether  my  heels  ever 
touched  the  ground  as  I  darted  up  the  stairs  and  down  the  hall  to 
Kendra's  office,  I  simply  cannot  recall.  I  braced  myself  in  the 
doorway  as  my  eyes  caught  hers.  Words  were  purposeless.  In  that 
magical  moment  the  word  'congratulations'  didn't  come  from  my 
lips;  it  came  from  Kendra's.  Third  floor  was  a  noisy,  emotionally- 
charged  corner  of  our  campus  that  afternoon.  The  election  results 
humbled  and,  of  course,  pleased  us. 

One  of  the  greatest  responsibilities  of  the  class  officers  and 
outstanding  seniors  each  year  is  to  sell  invitations  to  graduation. 
The  class  fund  is  generated  from  the  profits  of  this  sale.  This  year 
11,500  invitations  were  sold  in  the  first  sales  period.  A  printer's 
overrun  increased  the  number  sold  to  12,000.  Each  invitation  sold 
for  twenty-seven  cents  including  the  program,  two  envelopes,  a 
degree  insert  card,  and  the  invitation.  The  actual  cost  of  engrav- 

Continued 


ing  was  twenty-two  cents  and  the  nickel  profit  went  into  the  class 
fund.  For  five  weeks  seniors  volunteered  hours  of  their  hectic 
schedules  to  sit  in  the  foyer  of  the  Alumni  House  selling 
invitations. 

When  Beth  Binner  arrived  for  duty  she  resembled  Santa  Claus 
with  her  arms  full  of  soda,  a  radio,  and  cards.  She  was  a  bird  in  a 
cage  whose  spirit  leapt  into  moments  of  cackling  and  hearty 
laughter.  At  one  point  as  we  enjoyed  a  good  joke  with  shrill 
laughter  reverberating  throughout  the  stately  corridors  of  the 
Alumni  House  a  dignified,  mannerly  woman  stepped  into  the 
foyer  to  remind  us  we  were  not  in  the  dorms. 

Those  seniors  who  served  their  class  with  unselfish  hours  of 
recording  the  sales  of  12,000  invitations  were  Dalphene  Crowder, 
Beth  Binner,  Denise  Foster,  Jill  Hubbard,  Kendra  Smith,  and 
Richard  Roper.  Those  who  volunteered  time  in  the  final  sales 
were  Ricky  McKeel,  Tee  Lockamy,  and  Danny  Daniel. 

Senior  Day  marked  the  beginning  of  the  end.  The  Alumni 
House  was  the  setting  for  the  assembly  of  several  hundred  seniors 
who  came  to  meet  alumni,  talk  to  Career  Planning  and  Placement 
representatives,  and  to  enjoy  the  fellowship  and  refreshments. 
Miss  Barbara  Parrish  ('48),  Director  of  Alumni,  greeted  seniors  at 
the  door.  She  recorded  each  name  and  handed  each  a  button  with 
the  class  color  and  year  brightly  displayed.  Inside  the  Virginia 
Dare  Room  seniors  circulated  among  the  alumni  and  ad- 
ministrative personnel.  From  painter's  caps  to  balloons  to  but- 
tons it  was  unquestionable:  RED  was  the  color  of  our  class. 

In  a  number  of  ways  the  Class  of  1983  embellished  its  mark  on 
the  University  in  the  remaining  weeks  prior  to  commencement. 
Refusing  to  allow  any  opportunity  to  slip  away,  embracing  every 
chance  to  show  appreciation  for  the  memories  of  our  collegiate  ex- 
perience, we  ran  the  race  with  delight.  Our  most  important  priori- 
ty was  recognizing  those  who  made  our  past  days  at  the  Universi- 
ty special.  For  the  dedication  and  loyalty  shown  the  University 
and  especially  our  class  a  dinner  was  held  to  honor  Miss  Barbara 
Parrish  and  Dean  Clarence  0.  Shipton.  The  outstanding  seniors 


and  class  officers  spent  the  evening  of  May  .'?  sharing  in  the 
wisdom  and  goodness  of  the  two  people  who  had  coordinated 
class  affairs  and  organized  our  activities.  Following  the  sixth 
course  of  a  candlelight  dinner  the  grand  piano  across  the  room  led 
a  rousing  chorus  of  "Happy  Birthday"  for  Dean  Shiptcm.  Shari 
Chicurel  emerged  from  the  kitchen  carrying  Aunt  Jane's  prized 
pound  cake  bearing  two  candles  in  the  shape  of  question  marks. 
Dean  Shipton  continued  singing  until  he  realized  the  cake  was  for 
him.  Immediately  following  the  celebraticm  we  discussed  the  need 
to  earmark  money  in  the  class  fund  for  a  gift  to  help  the  hand- 
icapped students.  President  Veda  M.  Shamsid-Deen  stressed  the 
importance  of  helping  those  not  as  able-bodied  as  we. 

Upon  adjourning  Veda  and  I  exchanged  white  jerseys  to  wear 
the  next  day  at  graduation  rehearsal.  Stitched  on  to  those  jerseys 
on  the  front  were  our  respective  titles  in  red  letters.  On  the  back 
both  read,  "UNC  —  Great"  with  the  "G"  distinguished  in  gold, 
our  school  color. 

The  next  day.  May  4,  was  Reading  Day  and  hundreds  of  seniors 
filed  into  Aycock  Auditorium  to  rehearse  graduation.  As  the 
outstanding  seniors  collected  change  in  bread  baskets  Veda  in- 
troduced Jill  Cutler  and  me.  Hoyt  Price,  Registrar  of  the  Univer- 
sity, followed  with  an  explanation  of  formalities  and  procedures 
to  be  carried  out  on  graduation  morning.  At  the  close  of  rehearsel 
seniors  flocked  to  the  balcony  of  the  auditorium  where  the  last 
few  invitations  were  sold. 

May  fifth  through  the  fifteenth  was  a  period  of  seemingly 
endless  responsibilities  for  us.  We  insisted  on  maximizing  our  op- 
portunities and  making  the  most  of  the  final  days  at  UNC-Great. 
Upon  completion  of  exams  we  approached  graduation  weekend 
with  new  wind  in  full,  splendid  sails.  The  staff  of  the  Alumni 
House  prepared  for  the  onslaught  of  hundreds  of  returning  alum- 
ni. I  worried  excessively  about  the  impression  the  Class  of  1983 
would  make.  More  importantly,  I  worried  that  these  fine,  older 
ladies  might  frown  upon  a  man  in  a  class  officer  position.  After 
all,  I  will  be  dealing  with  them  for  the  rest  of  my  life. 

In  droves  they  arrived,  dentures  gleaming,  pictures  of  grand- 
children changing  hands,  speaking  the  kindest  words,  and  regard- 
ing me  with  optimism  I  didn't  expect.  Thanks  to  Brenda  Cooper, 
Judy  May,  Miriam  Holland,  Gina  Bowden,  Joe  Gainer,  Sharon 
Snider,  and  Carolyn  James,  the  return  of  those  dear  alumnae  was 
a  small  miracle.  They  are  all  part  of  the  living  legacy  which  binds 
us  together  into  that  special,  select  group  called  alumni. 

Saturday  morning.  May  14,  was  the  occasion  of  the  Alumni 
Mass  Meeting  in  Aycock  Auditorium.  Approximately  seven  hun- 
dred alumni  from  classes  ending  in  3  and  8  paraded  down  the 
aisles  to  seats  designated  by  brightly  colored  buttertlies.  Many 
classes  sang  their  class  songs  as  they  processed  and  several  carried 
banners  to  show  their  class  spirit.  The  meeting  began  with  the  in- 
duction of  officers  of  the  Class  of  1983  into  the  Alumni  Associa- 

Conlinued 


Commencement ...  a  beginning 


tion.  On  behalf  of  her  class,  Veda  addressed  the  crowd  with 
modesty  and  praise  for  the  University.  She  closed  stating  her 
hope  that  our  class  will  continue  to  enhance  and  support  the 
University  as  generously  as  the  alumni  classes  preceding  ours. 

That  afternoon  seniors  joined  alumni  at  the  Alumni  Mayhem. 
Alumni  from  all  classes  enjoyed  refreshments  and  fellowship  and 
the  opportunity  to  pass  along  wisdom  to  seniors  about  to  reach 
the  finish  line.  That  evening  Chancellor  Moran  held  his  annual 
reception  in  Cone  Ballroom  with  an  extravagant  feast  of  hors 
d'oeuvres  provided  by  Frank  DeMark.  Outside  the  ballroom 
threatening  clouds  gathered  and  the  wind  blew  a  thunderstorm 
through  campus.  Later  in  the  evening  I  presented  our  guest 
speaker,  Dr.  Barbara  Uehling  of  the  University  of  Missouri  at 
Columbia,  with  azaleas  and  chocolates.  Apparently  she  enjoyed 
the  chocolates:  early  the  next  morning  I  found  her  jogging 
through  campus. 

Sunday,  May  1.5,  1983.  A  crescendo  of  joy  began  as  the 
outstanding  seniors  and  class  officers  gathered  around  the  foun- 
tain outside  the  Greensboro  Memorial  Coliseum.  Tops  popped. 
Champagne  poured.  We  toasted  the  magic  of  the  moment  to  a 
steady  rhythm  of  clicking  cameras.  With  commencement  only  an 
hour  away  we  doted  like  children  on  holiday.  Hugs,  smiles,  a  few 
tears,  and  many  sentimental  moments  raised  our  spirits  while 
more  champagne  passed  into  hands  which  would  soon  grasp 
degrees.  We  moved  from  the  fountain  onto  the  lawn  beneath  the 
marquee  with  its  glittering  message:  "UNC-G  COMMENCE- 
MENT TODAY  10::30  A.M."  Cameras  clicked.  Champagne 
poured.  Inside  the  downbeat  of  the  processional  signaled  the 
change  of  mood  to  dignity  and  reverence.  Hearts  fluttered  in  each 
of  us  as  we  moved  with  hushed  enthusiasm  to  our  seats.  Glancing 
into  the  crowds  we  found  the  faces  of  those  whose  hearts  swelled 
with  the  love  and  pride  which  sustained  us  through  our  collegiate 
experiences.  The  joy  was  complete  as  we  received  confirmation 
that  our  loved  ones  were  with  us. 

In  the  next  hour  we  witnessed  routine  introductions  and  pro- 
ceedings forgotten  almost  as  soon  as  they  were  completed.  Two 
speeches  offered  words  of  wisdom.  Dr.  Barbara  Uehling  encour- 
aged us  with  foresight  into  this  age  of  booming  technology  and 
the  directions  into  which  it's  heading.  She  explained  how  our 
education  helps  us  cope  with  the  trends  of  supertechnology.  Mid- 
way through  her  address  a  champagne  stopper  rocketed  toward 
the  platform  to  the  delight  and  surprise  of  the  crowd.  Even  Dr. 
Uehling  paused  in  laughter  and  the  culprits  blushed  in 
mischievousness.  Dr.  Uehling  concluded  her  address  reminding 
us  that  diamonds  are  created  under  pressure;  she  requested  that 
we  become  diamonds. 


Kendra  Smith  approached  the  podium  bearing  the  greatest 
responsibility  of  any  honoree.  To  address  her  graduating  class 
and  the  twelve  thousand  attending  was  the  final  test  of  her 
undergraduate  service.  As  though  rehearsed  even  in  her  sleep 
every  phrase,  pause,  and  inflection  was  perfect.  The  audience  re- 
mained hushed  with  all  eyes  fixed  upon  Kendra  as  she  defined 
the  four  freedoms  Franklin  D.  Roosevelt  declared  essential  to 
human  existence  in  our  society.  I  cannot  recall  another  student  in 
my  years  at  UNC-Great  prouder  or  more  defensive  of  freedom 
than  Kendra.  Appropriately  her  address  gave  focus  to  the 
freedoms  we  take  for  granted.  During  her  speech  I  recalled  her 
presentation  before  the  selection  committee  six  weeks  prior.  At 
both  times  she  appealed  to  the  feelings  of  patriotism  dwelling 
deeply  within  members  of  the  audience.  Kendra's  speech  is  in- 
cluded in  the  pages  of  this  section  because  of  its  most  important 
message  for  posterity  and  in  recognition  of  her  spirit  and 
contributions. 

One  by  one  each  school  or  college  rose.  Chancellor  Moran  pro- 
nounced the  Class  of  1983  graduated  as  a  wave  of  hysterical 
cheers  and  shouts  rolled  from  wall  to  wall.  Confetti  blurred  my  vi- 
sion and  continued  snowing  over  our  class.  In  the  stands  families, 
friends,  and  relatives  joined  in  the  tumult.  1  recall  seeing  my 
sister  raising  her  arms  in  a  victory  sign  and  then  a  cloud  of  confet- 
ti wisped  through  the  air.  Around  me  friends  clung  to  each  other. 
Confetti  stuck  to  the  face  of  one  friend  whose  tears  reminded  me 
my  face  was  flushed  with  moisture  and  streaming  emotion.  Visual 
impressions  remain  today.  Who  will  forget  the  mortarboards 
which  read,  "PLEASE  HIRE  ME!"  and  "THANKS,  MOM  AND 
DAD!"?  Who  will  forget  the  dance  majors  who  turned  pirouettes 
upon  conferral?  The  benediction  concluded  and  we  filed  out  into 
the  sun's  radiance  and  into  the  arms  of  our  loved  ones.  Parents 
delighted  in  our  diplomas.  Cameras  clicked.  And  the  afternoon 


unfolded  into  quiet  celebration  and  the  reality  of  unemployment. 

The  words  of  Sir  Winston  Churchill  rang  through  my  head  as  I 
persevered  in  finishing  this  book.  Addressing  the  commencement 
class  of  a  boys'  preparatory  school  he  stood  with  serious  de- 
meanor gazing  upon  his  audience.  The  only  words  of  his  address: 
"Never  give  up.  Never  give  up.  NEVER  give  up!" 

Monday,  January  2,  1984.  Employment.  Career  satisfaction? 
Employment,  thank  God.  Career  satisfaction  can  only  be  ac- 
curately measured  by  periods  longer  than  the  seven  months  since 
commencement.  But  the  completion  of  this  yearbook  became 
another  career. 

Indeed,  what  began  in  the  summer  of  1982  as  a  tribute  to  the 
restoration  and  preservation  of  tradition  at  UNC-Great  declined 
into  an  ill-fated  attempt  by  October  of  1983.  Abandoned  by  its 
elected  editor  and  facing  a  multitude  of  technical  complications 
the  tradition  of  seventy-one  years  of  Pine  Needles  almost  ended. 
When,  in  much  doubt  of  its  worth  as  a  publication.  University 
Media  Board  voted  to  publish  the  remains,  I  accepted  the 
challenge  to  seam  together  the  ragged  edges. 

For  the  first  time  in  my  life  I  made  coffee  an  absolute  essential 
part  of  my  diet.  Gallon  by  gallon  I  was  supplied  with  a  caffeinic 
charge  keeping  my  eyelids  apart  and  my  nerves  stretched  from 
one  end  of  my  apartment  to  the  other  waking  the  dust  which  nor- 
mally lies  asleep.  Brownlines,  bluelines.  and  the  lines  under  my 
eyes  gave  evidence  of  progress  but  most  importantaly.  hope. 
Blocks  away  at  the  Univeristy  dice  continued  to  roll  and 
pessimists  spent  their  energies  trying  to  complicate  my  work. 


Between  my  career  and  the  late  hours  of  yearbook  labors  I  cleared 
the  hurdles  and  continued  running  all  the  way  to  the  Federal  Ex- 
press drop-off  office.  The  1983  Pine  Needles  arrived  in  Dallas, 
Texas,  the  following  morning.  I  put  the  coffee  back  into  the 
cabinet,  the  dust  went  back  to  sleep,  and  my  full  attention  re- 
sumed on  my  career. 

The  Class  of  1983  hopes  that  future  classes  will  continue  to 
fight  to  preserve  a  richer  American  collegiate  tradition.  It  was  our 
great  privilege  to  witness  the  advent  of  the  premiere  homecoming 
with  our  first  homecoming  queen  in  ninety-one  years.  We  are 
thankful  for  leadership  which  restores  tradition  and  spirit  rather 
than  obliterating  it.  We  look  forward  to  returning  to  an  even 
greater  UNC-Great  which  offers  with  equity  chances  for  others  to 
achieve.  We  salute  the  plan  for  development  as  it  maintains  the 
importance  of  a  liberal  arts  education  in  the  face  of 
supertechnology.  We  praise  the  success  of  Prospectus  III  for  goals 
never  before  attempted  at  UNC-Great.  We  recognize  our  roles  as 
alumni  of  this  institution  and  pledge  our  loyalty,  gifts,  and  ser- 
vice. Furthermore,  we  encourage  future  classes  to  follow  these 
fundamentals  and  to  seize  with  sincere  and  strong  conviction 
every  opportunity  to  restore  and  preserve  tradition.  Freedom 
gives  birth  to  opportunities  for  greatness.  We  are  the  people  of 
UNC-Great!

1983  COMMENCEMENT  ADDRESS 

Kendra  Leigh  Smith 

"Members  of  the  Class  of  1983,  faculty,  parents,  honored  guests,  and  friends  of  the  University  .  .  . 

So  often  is  the  case  that  people  will  come  to  a  university  hoping  that  in  the  future  their  education  will  help  them  to  earn 
more  money,  receive  further  promotions  in  their  jobs,  or  to  guarantee  that  much-desired  security. 

But  the  true  value  we  gain  at  a  university  is  the  freedoms  that  a  liberal  arts  education  provides  us:  the  freedom  that  opens 
our  minds  to  be  selective  yet  objective  to  new  ideas.  The  freedom  that  delivers  us  from  the  fear  of  the  unknown.  The 
freedom  that  gives  us  insight  —  what  we  hope  will  be  foresight.  The  freedom  that  helps  give  us  the  drive  and  determination 
to  be  who  we  are  and  who  we  want  to  be. 

President  Franklin  D.  Roosevelt  said  that  there  are  four  essential  human  freedoms:  the  freedom  of  speech  and  expression, 
the  freedom  of  worship,  the  freedom  from  want,  and  the  freedom  from  fear.  And  during  our  studies  here  at  UNC-G  we  have 
learned  the  true  meanings  of  these  freedoms. 

The  first  freedom,  the  freedom  of  speech  and  expression,  is  the  right  to  be  heard  and  to  hear  from  others.  We  can  be 
proud  that  we  allow  a  broad  spectrum  of  opinion  to  be  heard  here  at  UNC-G  rather  than  refusing  to  listen  to  speakers  with 
whom  we  may  disagree.  We  have  avoided  invoking  a  ban  such  as  the  recent  heckler's  vetos  used  at  Berkeley  and  at  the 
University  of  Minnesota  against  U.N.  Ambassador  Jean  Kirkpatrick  and  others. 

The  second  freedom,  freedom  of  worship,  is  the  ability  to  choose  who  or  what  will  provide  answers  to  the  unknown  and 
who  or  what  will  guide  us  in  our  lives.  As  we  all  know,  in  our  nation  today  there  are  individuals,  both  political  and  religious, 
who  insist  that  they  have  all  the  answers,  the  only  answers.  Yet  through  our  study  of  history  and  philosophy  we  have 
learned  of  the  danger  that  lies  in  only  allowing  one  view.  We  have  learned  tolerance  and  respect  for  differing  beliefs. 

The  third  freedom,  the  freedom  from  want,  means  equal  opportunities,  economic  safety,  and  the  preservation  of  civil 
liberties.  About  the  time  we  become  comfortable  with  our  advances  in  equality  and  civil  rights  something  happens  to 
reawaken  us  to  reality.  The  recent  racial  problems  surrounding  the  election  of  Chicago's  new  mayor  Harold  Washington 
reminds  us  of  the  task  ahead,  the  work  we  must  do  to  sustain  our  gains  and  to  push  ahead  in  our  fight  for  social  justice. 

The  fourth  and  final  freedom,  the  freedom  from  fear,  is  the  right  to  security  and  peace.  This  is  perhaps  the  greatest 
challenge  facing  us  as  graduates,  indeed,  facing  us  as  citizens  of  the  world.  We  are  assuming  responsibility  to  work  for  world 
peace. 

Freedom  of  speech  and  expression.  Freedom  of  worship.  Freedom  from  want.  Freedom  from  fear.  These  freedoms  have 
been  instilled  in  us  through  our  studies  at  UNC-G.  We,  as  students,  chose  a  liberal  arts  education  because  such  an 
experience  develops  our  abilities  and  capacities  to  exercise  such  concepts. 

Our  success  is  determined  in  part  by  our  professors,  our  mentors.  Those  who  have  helped  us  develop  such  freedoms  also 
chose  to  be  a  part  of  this  educational  process.  In  making  this  choice,  they  have  opened  our  minds,  as  they  will  open  the 
minds  of  others,  to  the  world  of  ideas.  They  are  helping  to  contribute  to  the  realization  and  preservation  of  our  freedoms. 
And  we,  as  students,  as  parents,  as  friends,  thank  these  individuals  seated  in  the  audience  today. 

So,  what  is  the  value  of  our  liberal  arts  education?  Is  the  answer  found  in  our  first  job?  No.  The  value  of  our  liberal  arts 
education  will  far  exceed  that  first  job  or  that  high  salary  or  that  big  promotion.  The  value  of  our  education  is  that  we  have 
been  exposed  to  the  ideas  and  the  freedoms  that  allow  us  to  survive  as  people.  They  allow  us  to  exercise  such  freedoms  with 
forsight  and  objectivity,  to  exercise  such  freedoms  with  the  care  and  determination  to  succeed. 

It  is  difficult  to  find  the  words  to  express  all  we  have  learned  here  at  UNC-G  but  perhaps  the  thoughts  can  be  found  in 
John  F.  Kennedy's  words.  He  spoke  to  the  citizens  of  America  and  to  the  citizens  of  the  world.  Those  words  still  echo  in  this 

coliseum  today.  ,„i  .u  j  ■  i  j 

With  a  good  conscience,  our  only  sure  reward, 
with  history,  the  final  judge  of  our  deeds, 
let  us  go  forth  to  lead  that  land  we  love, 
asking  His  hlessing  and  His  help,  but  knowing 
that  here  on  earth  God's  work  must  truly  be 
our  own.' 

Thank  you." 


"Success  lies  in  doing  not  what  others 

consider  to  be  great, 

but  what  you  consider  to  be  right."
